Dallol is a terrestrial hydrothermal system around a cinder cone volcano in The Danakil Depression in Ethiopia. It has very acidic fluids that discharge from its hydrothermal springs and extremophiles have been documented; providing insights into primitive life c. 4 billion years ago.

That depends on a bunch of other factors, such as the nutrient regimen and light availability. It is not inconceivable that in low nutrients / high temperature we'll end up with blobs of nearly sterile water or ones inhabited mostly by extremophiles.

Looks like Rhus. The dominant shrub in this area. A plant in it's native habitat grows so easily, and thrives. That's obvious, but I spend so much time taking care of exotics and extremophiles, it's easy to forget how quick and easy plants can grow. It'll be nice to see what it looks like this year.

Is there a possibility that mixotrophs, halophiles, and other extremophiles form a complex food chain where mixotrophs consume chemically stagnant rock until fresh rock is exposed which then reacts with radiolysis compounds formed on the ice surface that are delivered via observed ice fracturing?
We analysed *modern* Europa.
It may have been subject to MUCH more tidal heating at some point in the distant past. If so, there could have been a lot more tectonic activity on the seafloor, at least temporarily.
But it might also mean Europa's seafloor, today... is an alien graveyard.

Some beneficial, some poison, some helpful, & sulfur is anti-aging FYI. Can't imagine why. Perhaps a leftover trait from when extremophiles populated boiling cauldrons and cyanobacteria colonized this planet and led to us?

One extremophile eats Martian dirt, survives in space and can create oxygen for colonies
Extremophiles are a favorite tool of astrobiologists. But not only are they good for understanding the kind of extreme environments that life can survive in, sometimes they are useful as actual tools, creating materials necessary for other life, like oxygen, in those extreme environments. A recent paper from Daniella Billi of the University of Rome Tor Vergata, published in pre-print form in Acta Astronautica, reviews how one particular extremophile fills the role of both useful test subject and useful tool all at once.

yeah basically you can't really use the site for anything remotely to do with ai unless you're an extremophile. there's a reason why most of the people who talk about ai the most are Combat Posters, anyone who does not thrive on conflict simply stops bothering to post at some point
Deleted a post that was going viral and bringing an undesirable amount of attention from anonymous accounts. But, I'm going to be honest, the toxic folks here have won. So much of the usage of the site is about avoiding their attention. I'll just use this site to get book recs going forward
