Exploring Extreme Environments for Signs of Life Beyond Earth
Life thrives in extreme environments on Earth, with organisms known as extremophiles adapting to harsh conditions like heat, cold, darkness, acidity, and lack of oxygen. Scientists speculate about the possibility of life on other planets like Mars, focusing on Jupiter's moons as potential habitats. Images showcase diverse extremophiles and suggest promising locations for astrobiological exploration.
