NASA found Weird Bacteria live without Phosphorus

This bacterium is found in the earth. As we all know “Phosphorus” is an essential element for exists a life. But this Bacterium can live in the poisoned environment and it cans cataclinal to the environment. So there may be life in the unexpected places in Solar system with different conditions.

This bacterium took from lake in California and step by step change the environment of the bacteria to poisoned environment in the research lab. Amazingly without Phosphorus this bacterium grows inside the poisoned environment.

In previous researches of “finding life in solar system”, Researchers first check the essential elements for exists a life (Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Phosphorous, Sulphur). If those elements couldn’t find then they ignore that place in Solar.

Worst Manmade Disaster, Chernobyl Nuclear Disaster

I think this is the worst and biggest manmade environment disaster in the world, this happened in 1986 April 26 in Chernobyl. This disaster is the result of flawed reactor design that was operates with inadequately trained personnel. Actually this explosion is a Nuclear reaction and the steam explosion and radiation released more than 400 times in Hiroshima bomb. In this accident 2 Chernobyl plant workers died on that night and further 28 people reported as died because of radiation poisoning.

These are the worst effects of it.
