Genetic blueprints attached to a rocket survived a short spaceflight and later passed on their biological instructions Credit:Stockbyte Royalty Free Photos If a cascade of meteors struck Earth billions of years ago, could they have deposited genetic blueprints and forged an indelible link between Earth and another planet? Perhaps. Although that puzzling question remains unanswered, scientists have uncovered a new clue that suggests it is possible for DNA to withstand the extreme heat and pressure it would encounter when entering our atmosphere from space. In a new study published today in PLOS ONE, a team of Swiss and German scientists report that they dotted the exterior grooves of a rocket with fragments of DNA to test the genetic materials stability in space. Surprisingly, they discovered that some of those building blocks of life remained intact during the hostile conditions of the flight and could pass on genetic information even after exiting and reentering the atmosphere during a roughly 13-minute round trip into space. The findings suggest that if DNA traveled through space on meteorites, it could have conceivably survived, says lead author Oliver Ullrich of the University of Zurich. Moreover, he says, DNA attached to a spacecraft has the potential … Continue reading →

DNA molecules smeared onto the exterior of a sub-orbital test rocket are capable of surviving a 13-minute trip into space and a scorching re-entry, European researchers say. The scientists' surprising finding, which was published Wednesday in the journal PLOS One, suggests that genetic material is hardier than previously thought and may have the potential to stow away on robotic landers bound for other worlds, or within meteors, the report said. "It is conceivable that life exists independently from our planet even under the very hostile conditions prevailing on our neighbors like Mars," wrote senior study author Dr. Oliver Ullrich, a molecular biologist at the University of Zurich, and his colleagues. "Already on Earth we are able to identify some extreme life forms which can survive physically and/or geochemically harsh conditions, such as very high or low temperatures, intense radiation, pressure, vacuum, desiccation, salinity and pH. Many of these parameters also prevail in space and therefore the question is whether terrestrial organisms are able to survive a voyage through space." The experiment was conducted on the TEXUS-49 rocket mission that blasted off from Sweden in March 2011. The launch was part of a sounding rocket program in which instruments and experiments … Continue reading →

The substance that holds the code for life may be able to survive a short ride in space, a new study suggests. Samples of DNA squirted onto the exterior of a TEXUS-49 sounding rocket remained functional following a 13-minute suborbital spaceflight, the study's scientists report. "We were totally surprised. ... Our findings made us a little bit worried about the probability of contaminating spacecrafts, landers and landing sites with DNA from Earth," Cora Thiel, a molecular biologist at the University of Zurich and a lead author of the study, said in a statement. [How to Protect Other Planets from Earth Microbes] A TEXUS-49 rocket lifts off from the Esrange Space Center in Kiruna, northern Sweden, carrying plasmid DNA on its exterior. Scientists were surprised to find that the DNA survived the 13-minute flight. Thiel conducted the experiment along with Oliver Ullrich, a biochemist at the University of Zurich as well as the University of Magdeburg in Germany. Thiel and Ullrich put an experiment inside the payload bay of a TEXUS-49 rocket set for launch from the Esrange Space Center in Kiruna in northern Sweden, to study the effect of weightlessness on DNA and its ability to function. During flight preparations, … Continue reading →

Plasmid DNA attached to the outer surface of a sounding rocket may be able to withstand rocket launch, a period of residence in suborbital space, re-entry, and landing conditions into the Earth's atmosphere, all the while staying intact and active in its function as carrier of genetic information, according to a study published November 26, 2014 in the open-access journal PLOS ONE by Cora Thiel and Oliver Ullrich from University of Zurich and colleagues. DNA plays an important role as a biomarker for the search of extraterrestrial signatures of life, and scientists are working to characterize and compare the influence of Earth and space conditions on DNA. The authors of this study designed a test to analyze the biological effects of suborbital spaceflights using the TEXUS-49 rocket mission in March 2011. They attached artificial plasmid DNA carrying a fluorescent marker and an antibiotic resistance gene cassette at three different positions on the rocket exterior, where outer gas temperatures were estimated at over 1000C during the short 780 second flight. Researchers analyzed the samples immediately after the flight, and the results showed that DNA survives to varying degrees in all cases, and in particular, even after application of temporary heating up … Continue reading →
