Incendiamoeba cascadensis can reproduce up to 63°C (145.4°F)

WithinReason•2mo ago

The archaean Methanopyrus kandleri can grow at 122°C, while among bacteria, Geothermobacterium ferrireducens can grow at temperatures up to 100°C

metalman•2mo ago

the numbers put the idea of total extinction of life on earth way out there in the relm of the improbable, and suggest that perhaps some living things will survive the expansion of our sun, when it inevitably turns into a red giant, or at least till some later phase in that process it also means that irrate alliens looking to rid the universe of earth life, have got there work cut out for them

close04•2mo ago

When the Sun turns into a red giant the water on Earth won't stay liquid for much longer. Lack of water will be a much bigger challenge for life before the planet hits that limit of 122°C.

vatsachak•2mo ago

I wouldn't be surprised if life on earth expands to other solar systems before the sun goes berserk. There's 5 billion years left

tim333•2mo ago

Or just the chillier bits of our own one.

Gibbon1•2mo ago

I have a self bet that if they discover life on mars it's going to be suspiciously similar to what we have here.

vatsachak•2mo ago

Evolution is beautiful. To me, it's the most beautiful process ever chronicled

adrian_b•2mo ago

That is why the title stresses that this is a new record for an eukaryote.

It is well known that the much less complex bacteria & archaea can live at much higher temperatures than any eukaryote.
