British scientists, after a small experiment with an atmospheric probe, proved the existence of extraterrestrial life. They managed to find an alien creature directly in the stratosphere of our native land.
July 31 this year, the researchers launched a probe that climbed to a height of about 25km. To the probe were attached sterile slide glasses, which are used to study small organisms under a microscope. As a result of this experiment, samples of microorganisms living at such a high altitude were obtained from the stratosphere of the earth.
As previously thought, at such an altitude there can not be, in principle, living beings. At an altitude of 10 km from the land where passenger liners fly for a long time, the temperature reaches minus 100 ° C, and at a higher altitude, the cosmic cold must simply kill all living things. But as a result of the experiment, even its organizers came to their surprise. A more detailed study of organisms living in the stratosphere revealed their closest resemblance to terrestrial unicellular algae, but precisely to the science of the unknown. The terrestrial "brothers" in question (diatoms) simply could not survive at such low temperatures, from which scientists concluded that the microorganisms found in the stratosphere are of an unearthly origin and adapted to travel in outer space. Anyway, the pioneers are sure of this. They connect the appearance of microorganisms with the fall of meteorites that occurred in August, as well as with the famous Chelyabinsk meteorite. Scientists are sure that algae could not rise to such a height. First of all, the clouds that are formed from water processes on earth, due to the same cold, do not rise so high. They admit the only reason this could have happened - the eruption of a volcano, but such powerful eruptions have not been recorded recently, and besides, algae do not live in the volcano's mouth.
In addition, microorganisms have not been found so-called "earth pollen" (known only in scientific circles), which would indicate that they are from our planet. But cosmic dust covers them in abundance. Scientists suggest that microorganisms covered an icy comet that migrated throughout the universe, and melted near the Earth itself. This version proves the ability of organisms to tolerate very low temperatures.
World academic circles reacted to the opening ambiguously. Some scientific luminaries suggest that microorganisms could enter the stratosphere as a result of a storm or some other earth process. However, the professors honestly admitted that this case of detection of microorganisms unknown to terrestrial science on the very edge of the protective shell of our planet is not the first. Attempts to discover the unearthly life were conducted by Soviet scientists, and at a much higher altitude and with greater possibilities. Then we also managed to discover "something", but it was not possible to explain this, therefore, as is customary in such cases, this "something" was reliably hidden.
