Mono Lake: Home to the Strange Microbe GFAJ-1

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

Mono Lake in California is home to a unique microbe. This bacterium appears to tolerate high levels of arsenic and may even use it in place of phosphorus. This discovery suggests that life elsewhere in the universe might be composed of different fundamental elements than life on Earth. It challenges our understanding of life's basic requirements.
