TARDIGRADES could be the last survivors on Earth!
Tardigrades or water bears can survive in extreme cold environments, in space, oceans, and any challenging condition. Also they live longer than most organisms!
So, guess who will accompany astronauts to the International Space Station next week, June 3rd? Frozen tardigrades!
They can survive and reproduce in space! So what can we learn from them? How do they adapt? What are their DNAs letting us? How do they live longer?
One probable hypothesis is that water bears produce a lot of antioxidants to fight against radiation. If so, then astronauts would need to eat more antioxidants.
Why waiting?
Antioxidants help prevent the oxidation of cells. Oxidized cells produce free radicals that damage tissues. That means that you won’t live longer and all possible degeneration associated with age, including cancer, diabetes, etc..
