Life thrives in the deepest, darkest recesses of Earth’s crust-from methane seeps in the ocean floor to the highest reaches of Arctic permafrost-and it is unlike anything seen on the surface. Karen Lloyd shares what scientists are learning about these strange types of microbial life-and how research expeditions to some of the most extreme locales on the planet can tell us about the prospects for finding life on other planets-and the future of life on our own.
