This Antarctic Moss Depends on Penguin Poop to Survive
Indian biologist Felix Bast of the Central University of Punjab was on a mission to Antarctica where he stumbled upon a new species of moss.When he analyzed the moss sample back at his lab, Bast discovered that the moss only grew where it could find a source of nitrogen ... and in Antarctica, there was only one source: penguin poop!The new moss species was named Bryum Bharatiensis. Bharati is the Hindu goddess of learning and the name of one of India's Antarctic research stations.#moss #penguin #nitrogen #Antarctica #newspecies #poop #Bharati #HinduGod #goddess
