Desulforudis Audaxviator Is A Bacterium That Lives On Heat Generated By Uranium In The Earth's Crust
Desulforudis audaxviator is a bacterium that lives in the depths of the Earth. It has been found almost two miles below the Earth’s surface. There is no light where it lives and the ground water is over two hundred and eighty degrees Fahrenheit. There is also no oxygen or other organic materials there. The bacterium extracts energy from the decay of uranium in the rocks.
