SCIENTISTS REVIVE ORGANISM FOUND BURIED AT BOTTOM OF OCEAN

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

German researchers have revived algae cells that were dormant for over 7,000 years. Found buried at the bottom of the Baltic Sea imprisoned under layers of sediment, the cells were deprived of oxygen or light for millennia. They showed full function recovery after being revived and started multiplying again with no issues. It is now possible to conduct 'time-jump experiments' into the various stages of Baltic Sea development in the lab.
