Microbes could survive on planets with all-hydrogen atmospheres

An excerpt from Inside Science In a new study, researchers investigated how well two different kinds of microbes grew in the lab in 100% hydrogen: the bacterium E. coli, which lacks a nucleus, and yeast, which possesses one. These microbes can survive and grow in 100% hydrogen atmospheres, suggesting life could potentially evolve on a much …
