Can you believe the survival of  living organism outside space..Well i was  not  till date  until  scientists from Russia and Japanese proved me wrong.

A russian scientist said that Mosquito has managed to survive in other space for  18 months till they brought it  to  Earth. This was confirmed by Anatoly Grigoryev, vice president of the Russian Academy of Sciences Who added “We brought it back to  earth and its  still moving its feet”

Grigoryev said that they moved the  insect outside  the space  by order of institute and they have  earlier tried the experiment on Bacteria and fungi outside space  until a Japanese scientist suggested  mosquito’s.

The amazing fact is the  mosquito survived in the extreme chillness of minus 150 t0 hot  temperature of 60 degree of sunlight.

From 2005  along with Japanese scientist ,Russian scientist conducted various experiment on DNA ,larvae (which resisted to  high temperature even if they were boiled and cooled  to  minus 210).

To add to this  findings,the scientist are planning to send a number of micro organisms to Phobos,One of  mars-moon under Phobos-Grunt programme and then return them to earth.Scientist believe this  by this  way they could  find out their survival and reversible suspended-animation mechanisms..

Well the researchers are trying to play their part  to the findings of Russian and Japanese scientist.
