A 46,000-year-old worm found in Siberian permafrost was brought back to life, and started having babies
Scientists on Thursday published a paper identifying and naming the worm, which they said belonged to a previously-unidentified species.

This would have a bigger impact than a worm for sure. Hah!
i think you spelled "terrifying" wrong
I did as well and could not figure out why TF this wasn't the biggest story in the history of stories
Me too! - Imagine this being the first comment. Hilarious!
I was wondering what the hell was happening in that lab?
I remember this episode of the X-Files…
Different one, though this one was a banger too.
The spice must flow
I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.
Wondering the consequences of reviving a 5000 year old worm species. I would imagine this would never make it back to the wild.
46,000 year old it says
Whoops, teaches me to read better. Better finish my coffee…
I was 50-50 between mistake and that you might have been going with "the earth is only 5000 years old" 😄
Didn't any of these scientists watch "The Thing"?
People stationed on antarctica always watch The Thing the first night as a matter of tradition. We thought it was a hazing ritual. It's actually a warning...
This is awesome but also somewhat concerning
I’m getting x-file vibes and it’s never a good thing
