            "description": "Scientists discover fungi that can survive spacecraft sterilization, space radiation, and Martian conditions, raising concerns about planetary contamination.",
            "content": "Engineers face an omnipresent but invisible enemy: microbial life in the cleanrooms where spacecraft are put together. All surfaces are scrubbed at scalding temperatures and soaked in disinfectant. The goal is simple: to ensure that no organisms on E... [4544 chars]",

            "description": "Cyanobacteria—ancient microbes that oxygenated Earth and made complex life possible—are still revealing surprises billions of years later. Scientists have now discovered that a molecular system once used to separate DNA has been repurposed into something entirely different: a structure that shapes the cell itself.",
