I'm actually surprised there's somewhere on the planet with liquid water that doesn't have something living in or around it.

I used to work in a petrology preparation lab. (The proper name for a lapidary lab when it’s in a university geology department.) The weirdest place microscopic life forms would appear was in the bottoms of the rock saws. Especially after processing pyrites. The slurry that settled in the bottom would quickly fill with a sulphur digesting bacteria that would then release that sulphur as various vile smelling gaseous compounds. Meanwhile, on the top of the water, if the saw wasn’t used for a few days, what looked like a type of slime mould would grow. Then across the room, a saw used to cut extremely hard rocks automatically and used a reservoir of essentially motor oil as the lubricant and coolant would also grow various sulphur and slime colonies if any pyrites were processed. Some species would actually break down the oil, and it would have to be scrapped as it would bind up the blade.

Actually there was a paper done where they examined both the water and some of the sediments, they found traces of extremophiles down to the genes, so life did find a way there too.

I believe there was a paper published in 2020 that talked about bacteria uniquely small that lived in the area.

This is the "uh" in "Life, uh, finds a way."

That looks like an entire different planet altogether. Earth is really fascinating

My favorite place for life finding a way is clean rooms that are suppose to prevent it. Life is like “you missed a spot 🤪

I think the biggest issue with humans looking for life on other planets is we assume they need what we need. If they developed in a silicate based environment, or a idk, boron based one for example, they might have vastly different needs than we have and different tolerances that are just as different.

It's a little comforting to know that sometimes it really is hopeless

Ethiopia is incredible, you’ve got the place we think humans emerged and evolved from and this extraordinary location that we haven’t been able to find a creature that can tolerate it. And it’s bright yellow :D

It would actually be interesting if they used this place as a plot point in some movie or tv show that has a character or characters with invulnerability or healing powers. So the people trying to take them out have to bring them there or lure them there to stand a chance.

Ive always felt like this isn’t the full story here. The geothermal field in question isn’t very old - on a scale of 10,000s years max. We know this because human remains and other fossil evidence shows the area was once much more hospitable. I guarantee that in such an isolated and unique habitat, eventually, given enough time for evolution to happen, microbes will adapt to the conditions present in these pools.

I just realized it looks kinda like a giant slime mold.

It's kind of funny to me how this place, a place seemingly so deadly that not even extremophiles live there, itself resembles a kind of living creature.

Plants at home: the sun is too bright, there isn’t enough light, too much water, not enough water, I want more food, nah too much food, vibes are off
Plants in the wild: uwu is that a crack in the concrete?

Polyextremophiles are pretty cool, as sometimes one adaptation provides the possibility to adapt to another niche, but each variable further affects the chances of evolutionary fitness being relatively effective.

Those look like cozy hot springs but I know that they would melt my body instantly

too salty? there are things that can survive in that
too aciditc? yeah, sure
too hot? as long as it's within reason, yeah things can live there
but all of them at once seems to be a perfect recipe to a death soup

Extremophiles when they get to the Dallol Geothermal Field: "What's our safe word again?"

@sahpem4425

Huh. That’s kind of wild that they can’t survive there.
Yellowstone’s extremophiles come to mind. It was a cool place to visit. Much recommend!
