Began a nasa-funded study to look for life in the most unfriendly environments. like, the boiling, acidic hot springs of porcelain basin. >> there is enormous amount of these chemical gradients happening and organisms are using things belike arsenic and sulfur and iron as their energy source. >> reporter: and the life mark discovered? a fungus microbe that grows incredibly fast and clean, and as they showed me back in chicago, has the natural texture of a chicken breast. and, they claim, all the...

All the micro algae and macro algae produce about 30% of the oxygen we breathe, so in terms of thinking of how important forests are and trees are, equally the health of the ocean and all these organisms are massively important from that point of view too. with a pandemic putting many getaways on pause, this mightjust be the picture postcard weve all been needing. harriet bradshaw, bbc news, oban. now its time for a look at the weather with matt taylor. hello. it may stay a little bit grey, damp...
