I have recently discovered archaea, living organisms I barely remembered from one mention in science class. I think they're quite fascinating !
They are, basically, a type of small organism that isn't either a bacteria or an eukaryote.
Here are the Wikipedia links to some archaea I find cool :
- Haloquadratum walsbyi, because of its square shape;
- Pyrococcus furiosus, who can resist extreme environments;
- Lokiarchaeota, a phylum with a cool name containing a series of cool-named archaea.
