- Moss Survived 9 Months in The Vacuum of Space - ScienceAlert
Now, researchers have exposed the spore-containing capsules of one prized species to the harsh extremes of space, and again, as with space-faring tardigrades, many survived unscathed "We expected almost zero survival, but the result was the opposite: most of the spores survived," says Hokkaido University biologist Tomomichi Fujita
- We were genuinely astonished: This moss survived 9 months outside the . . .
Moss spores survived for nine months on the exterior of the International Space Station, showcasing an "astonishing" hardiness that could one day help humanity settle worlds beyond Earth
- This moss survived 9 months directly exposed to the elements of space
Mosses thrive in the most extreme environments on Earth, from the peaks of the Himalayas to the sands of Death Valley, the Antarctic tundra to the lava fields of active volcanoes Inspired by moss
- Scientists Stunned as Moss Survives 9 Months in Open Space
A Radical Question: Could Moss Survive Space? To explore this question, Fujita and his colleagues exposed Physcomitrium patens, also called spreading earthmoss, to a simulated space environment that included intense UV radiation, extreme temperature variations, and vacuum-level pressure

The moss species Physcomitrium patens is the latest organism to survive an extended stay in the vacuum and radiation of space

Moss spores were attached to the outside of the International Space Station for nine months in an experiment Most survived and were able to reproduce back on Earth
- This moss survived 9 months outside the International Space Station in . . .
This moss didn't get to live in the comfy more-or-less Earth-like confines of the station, but rather was put outside into the harshness of space for nine months
- Moss spores survive for nine months in the vacuum of space
Recently, scientists have confirmed the incredible resilience of living organisms to space conditions Moss spores, which spent nine months outside the International Space Station in a vacuum and under intense radiation, were successfully grown into full-fledged plants Moss Source: Tomomichi Fujita Moss survival ability Mosses thrive in the most extreme conditions on Earth: from the peaks of
