Germs That Go Into Space Return Deadlier Than Ever

27 09 2007

New scifi flick, anyone?

Neatorama:

“What happen when germs go into space on a rocket and come back to Earth? They become stronger and deadlier than ever:

Scientists wanted to see how space travel affects germs, so they took some along — carefully wrapped — for the ride.

The result: Mice fed the space germs were three times more
likely to get sick and died quicker than others fed identical germs
that had remained behind on Earth.”
