| Heat-loving extremophile bacteria certainly exist. |
| This extremophile bacterium can survive exposure to cold, dehydration, acid and vacuums, meaning it could live on in outer space should the Earth cease to exist. |
| Meanwhile, Earth-dwelling extremophile microorganisms, both thermophilic and psychrophilic, are variously adapted to temperatures that would fry us or freeze us. |
| By now, at least a dozen different classes of extremophile have been studied, ranging from acidophiles to xerophiles. |
| He suggests further that recently discovered exotic Earthly life forms are extremophile only if one considers every venue outside our comfort zone to be extreme. |
| There will always be species that manage to survive the most catastrophic events, such as extremophile bacteria. |
