Are You Ready to Have Your Mind Blown?

[PinothyJ]

A British scientist has decided that carbon life is simply too boring to study, and in absence of any other known life he decided to make his own: OUT OF METAL.


If that did not blow your tiny little minds the researcher -- Lee Cronin of the University of Glasgow -- is convinced that the cells are EVOLVING! These metal cells are being called "inorganic chemical cells," or iCHELLs which, unfortunately, just make me thing of some kind of Apple corrupted Portal merchandise.


Read the article here and here, and have a mind blown on me…

Incorrect. The largest single-cell organism is about the size of a mango and floats around deep in the ocean.
