Space Bugs!
September 25th, 2007
I thought this was an interesting article about how germs that were taken into space come back stronger than germs that were not taken into space.
So are we more susceptible to germs while we’re in space than we are here? Does our gravity actually help keep germs weaker than they would be in low-grav environments? Should astronauts be quarantined when they come back? Is our entire civilization going to one day be destroyed by… SPACE BUGS??? (Or have I been reading too much sci-fi?)

I think you’ve been reading just enough sci-fi to be properly concerned. Trouble’s a-comin’!

This is your little cousin. I may seem little to you because I’m only 11, but I’m not little any more. I totally agree with you on the space bugs! I have reading sci-fi a little too much too.
How do you start a blog? I love yours! The fish song was fun - I want to try it!!!!!
