Chinese scientists discover plant syntrichia caninerevis that could survive on mars

Scientists have been engaged in finding the possibility of life on Mars for decades. Now Chinese scientists have claimed to have a big discovery in this direction. Scientists have discovered a plant that can keep themselves alive even in the odd circumstances of Mars! However, scientists have just expressed its possibility. This plant is found in Antarctica and Mojev desert. It is a type of desert moss, about which scientists have expressed the possibility that it may be the key to flourish life on the red planet. The Guardian According to a report by, the scientific name of this desert moss is Syntrichia CanineRVIS. Scientists have said that it can tolerate immense heat, immense cold, and radiation. The team of researchers has said that their study lays the foundation of settling settlements in space that will be naturally chosen plants, which will be able to protect themselves even in the challenging circumstances there.

Regarding Syntrichia CanineRVIS, the study states that its environmental flexibility proves it above all microorganisms that keep themselves alive even in a very stressful environment. Scientists are saying that this is a leading plant that can lay the foundation for the discharge of human settlement in space outside the earth. This study has been published in a journal called The Innovation. Researchers reported in an article about syntricia canninarvis that this desert moss was not only able to live in such an environment, but also rescued itself from the excessive lack of water. That is, it can also bring back itself from high level dehydration. The plant was exposed to gamma rays in 30 days minus 196 ° C. It was kept at minus 80 ° C for 5 years. Nevertheless, it continued to develop itself in general.

Apart from this, the team prepared a pressure area for it like Mars, the same temperature was passed over it, it was kept in gases and ultraviolet radiation. It was still alive when it was seen after seven days. Scientists seem confident that this plant can definitely live in the challenging atmosphere of Mars. However, the region is yet to have more intense research, but scientists have found a plant that can lay the foundation of life outside the earth in space in the form of syntrichia caninervis.
