Червяк микроскопический, живущий на глубине почти полтора километра.
Scientists have discovered the first multicellular life in the deep subsurface biosphere.
In plainer terms: they've discovered worms from hell.
Located in the deep subsurface biosphere, these nematoda (including a new species known as Halicephalobus mephisto), are the deepest multi-cellular organisms found on Earth. Their discovery was announced in the latest issue of Nature.
This discovery is huge, simply because scientists previously thought complex life was impossible at that depth, according to LiveScience. But perhaps more importantly, the findings give a different perspective on where life could exist in the universe, potentially miles beneath the surface of alien planets.
