A Russian engineer aboard the ISS announces an unprecedented event.

Anton Skaplerov says he has discovered outside the ISS a bacteria that does not come from the Earth. It wasn’t there when the Space Station was launched into the orbit.

Is it an alien body?

The bacteria was discovered by the astronauts who took samples from the hull of the space station and has already been subjected to a series of tests that indicate it is not dangerous for us. However, it was sent to further analysis on Earth.

It is known from previous tests that some microorganisms have the ability to reach space, coming from Earth, and eventually succeed in fixing themselves on the outside of the Space Station, where they can survive, by changing their shape.

Astronauts have conducted a series of tests on E.coli bacteria to see how it is adapted to the conditions of zero gravity. They’ve noticed something strange: the bacteria has become more resistant to antibiotics.

As for the new organism, there is not much information available at the moment, but there is a great possibility that it does not come from Earth.

Currently, aboard the International Space Station is a crew of only six people: four Russians and two Americans.
