Evidence of Ancient Life Found Buried Under an Asteroid Crater

[Grim Reaper 6]

Hello everyone based upon a new discovery in South Korea it appears that Ancient Life may have thrived in Asteroid impact craters. Beneath a crater gouged by a massive impact around 42,000 years ago, a team led by geologist Jaesoo Lim of the Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources (KIGAM) has identified several stromatolites. Stromatolites are layered structures built by microbial matts these life forms are some of the oldest structures found on earth.

6-8Km rim to rim is not small. That must have been one hell of a show from the cosmos!

Nice story bro. Who's paying for the funding? Who's collecting money?

Because it's about Korea i get to post K-Pop now...

Awesome discovery too!

This is stating that the asteroid impact made a hot spring by breaking the crust. This made a better environment for the microbes to thrive.

I want to know is if the microbes were already here or were they riding along with the asteroid? That could be a very interesting answer. 

This is a very interesting thread.
