Tardigrade. Polarised light micrograph of a tardigrade (waterbear). Waterbears are small,water-dwelling,segmented micro-animals with eight legs that live in damp habitats such as moss or lichen. They are classed as extremophiles as they can survive dry conditions by changing into a desiccated state,in which they can remain for many years. They have even been brought back alive after spending 10 days in the vacuum of space. Magnification: x100,when printed at 10 centimetres wide. Magnification: x200 when printed 10 centimetres wide | |
