Well, Whadya Know?

 Originally found deep in a South African mine, a bacterium named Candidatus Desulforudis audaxviator was found to survive on a diet of chemicals produced from radioactivity deep in the earth. Since then the bacteria have also been found deep underground in California and Siberia where the chemical environments are each very different. Scientists thought they had “a unique opportunity to look for differences that have emerged between the populations over their millions of years of evolution”. However, when scientists from the Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences studied 126 samples from the three different and widely separated sites, they found the separate genomes were almost identical. Creation Research.
