IMPACT ON PLANTS. “Correlative evidence suggests a relationship between the lunisolar tidal acceleration and the elongation rate of arabidopsis roots grown under free-running conditions of constant low light.

IMPACT AT ALL LEVELS. “We studied a variety of biological parameters: geotropism, lipid peroxidation, superoxidismutase activity, embryonic mortality, calpain activity in the muscle and brain, proteolytic activity, and amylolytic activity of digestive enzymes. These organisms and parameters were chosen because they were shown high sensitivity to magnetic fields prior to our study.” http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1364682614000339 View in LinkedIn

DEEPLY SENSITIVE. “Here we show, using a laboratory mouse model in which magnetic sensitivity may be driven by the same mechanism as that for bird orientation and homing, that sensitivity to tens of nanotesla does occur.” http://rsif.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/10/81/20121046.short View in LinkedIn

LARGELY PROTECTED. “Earth's magnetic field (geomagnetic field) changes over time and extends from the Earth’s inner core to where it meets the solar wind. The solar wind is responsible for the overall shape of Earth’s magnetosphere, the sphere protecting the Earth, and fluctuations in its speed, density, direction, and entrained magnetic field strongly affect Earth’s local space environment and technological, biological and ecological systems on the Earth.” http://file.scirp.org/Html/6-8202044_31922.htm View in LinkedIn

MILESTONE FINDING ON RUSSIAN SPACESHIP (2020). “During the course of research investigation, viable spores of the microorganisms were periodically detected in the samples taken on the outer surface of the International Space Station. Among samples taken in 2016, a consortium of non-spore-forming bacteria was found on the outside of the porthole, which consisted of Agrococcus jenensis, Skermanella aerolata, Deinococcus aerolatus, and Staphylococcus hominis.” A first! https://lnkd.in/d7y7we4 View in LinkedIn

STUNNING PREDICTION. “On the nature of interstellar grains (1979), by F. Hoyle & C. Wickramasinghe. " "“The strongest of the diffuse interstellar bands are provisionally assigned to carotenoid-chlorophyll pigment complexes such as exist in algae and pigmented bacteria. The λ2200 Å interstellar absorption feature could be due to ‘degraded’ cellulose strands which form spherical graphitic particles, but could equally well be due to protein-lipid-nucleic acid complexes in bacteria and viruses. Interstellar extinction at wavelengths λ

ORGANIC MOLECULES IN SPACE PREDICTED. “Identification of the λ2, 200Å interstellar absorption feature (1977), by F. Hoyle & C. Wickramasinghe. “Here we identify this band as representing the integrated effect of a set of bicyclic compounds, each with the empirical formula C8H6N2. Such nitrogenated structures could form in stellar mass flows of the type which we have also discussed. A significant mass fraction of all interstellar material might exist in this form.” https://lnkd.in/dkEHZXn View in LinkedIn

NOT UNIQUE TO EARTH. “The implications of this point of view, which was developed in conjunction with the late Sir Fred Hoyle since the 1970s, are now becoming amenable to direct empirical test by studies of pristine organic material in the stratosphere. The ancient theory of panspermia may be on the verge of vindication, in which case the entire universe would be a grand crucible of cryomicrobiology.” (Professor Chandra Wickramasinghe, 2004). https://lnkd.in/dFRBz2F View in LinkedIn
