New clue to understanding life

GALAN VOLCANO, ARGENTINA (Reuters) – A lake in Argentina's remote, inhospitable northwest may offer clues on how life got started on Earth and how it could survive on other planets, scientists say. Researchers have found millions of "super" bacteria thriving inside the oxygen-starved Lake Diamante, in the center of a giant volcanic crater located over 15,400 feet above sea level. The bacteria's habitat is similar to primitive earth, before living and breathing organisms began wrapping a protective atmosphere of oxygen around the planet.

We're finding more and more amazing information about life on Earth and other planets in our own backyards. Well lakes anyway. This is very amazing how we can gather all this information. What are your thoughts on this guys?

This is similar to this thread that talks about life forms that never need oxygen.
