你要研究火星，又怎能沒有太空船？前往地球上與火星最相似的地方──智利的阿他加馬沙漠。天體生物學家阿曼多・阿蘇亞・布斯托斯生長於這片遼闊且乾旱的地方。他在研究一些稀有生物怎樣能適應並生存於過去 400 年沒有降雨記錄的地方。透過這簡短有趣的演講，讓我們一同探索在地球和宇宙其他地方尋找到生命的可能性。

地球上與火星最相似的地方

Studying the Atacama Desert, where some regions have seen no rain for over 400 years, offers insights into how life might persist on Mars. Microalgae in the Atacama survive by drawing water from fog and dew, even thriving on spiderwebs or deep within caves with nearly no light. Underground, researchers found microorganisms clinging to life in extreme dryness, suggesting that even the most inhospitable environments can harbor surprises. These discoveries reshape our search for life beyond Earth and expand what we consider possible.
