Bacteriophages: The Most Common Life-Like Form on Earth

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

Bacteriophages are the most common life-like form on Earth. These small viruses attack and consume bacteria, a process they have likely performed for over three billion years. Initially discovered in the early 20th century, their vast numbers were only recently understood when scientists found millions in a single drop of seawater.
