A mysterious alien slime has been found living in an Australian cave, maintaining itself independently from sunlight and other living things.
The dominant group of organism in the cave slimes is known as the THAUMARCHAEOTA.
It feeds by oxydizing ammonia from cave salt.
Scientists speculate that this lifeform arrived with a marine flood.
Divers found it in water-filled underground caves beneath Australia’s Nullarbor Plain.
