youtu.be/s3oLIDaElaE?... Randall Monroe (creator of the STEM nerdy webcomic xkcd) has an amazing sci-comm on the question "How long would you live without DNA?" Lots of great biology in this 3 minutes.
Dust looks dead but it is, in fact, alive, teeming with hardy microbes traveling around the world. How are they surviving the trip? Scientists think biofilm formation may play a role. Watch Microbial Minutes for the full story! 🦠 youtu.be/3q-rhw17h2o
