Biologists have found complex, multi-celled creatures living a mile and more below the planet’s surface for the first time, raising new possibilities about the spread of life on Earth and potential subsurface life on other planets and moons.
The two lead scientists, Gaetan Borgonie of the University of Ghent in Belgium and Tullis Onstott of Princeton University, said the discovery of creatures so far below ground, with nervous, digestive and reproductive systems, was the equivalent to finding “Moby Dick in Lake Ontario.” Dubbed “worms from hell,” the nematodes, or roundworms, were discovered in several gold mines in South Africa, where researchers have also made other breakthrough discoveries about deep subterranean single-cell life.
“This is telling us something brand new,” said Onstott, whose pioneering work in South Africa over the past decade has revolutionized the understanding of extreme microbial life. “For a relatively complex creature like a nematode to penetrate that deep is simply remarkable,” he added.
