Ep 95: 10,000 Year Old Organisms Brought to Life from Naica Cave Crystals

Published: March 7, 2017, 4:45 p.m.

In this episode of the Dudes and Beer podcast host Christopher Jordan is on the road in Katy, TX and joined by Randy Jordan and Israel Thompson to discuss the recent amazing announcement of 10,000 year old organisms brought to life from Naica Cave crystals. Yes, that’s right scientists not only found the remnants of organisms within the crystals, but managed to bring them back to life through the science of genetics. What could the possible implications of such things be? How was genetic material able to survive not only the environment necessary to form crystals, but actually survive the process of crystallization? What answers might these organisms hold to the process of evolution and survival? Could these organisms possibly be dangerous and should we even be reviving them? These questions and more pondered in this episode of the Dudes and Beer podcast.
