Bacteria are some of the hardiest species on the planet, so it might not be totally surprising to find them airborne. What is an extremely surprising discovery is NASA’s finding that bacterial densities in Earth’s upper atmosphere, at elevations of around 10 kilometers, actually exceed bacterial concentrations at lower elevations.

Bacteria densities over the Gulf of Mexico accounted for an incredible 20 percent of all matter sampled by scientists involved in a pioneering study of atmospheric composition. The bacteria are believed to be doing a lot more than floating around aimlessly.

Scientists suspect that the atmospheric bacteria might be responsible for partially controlling Earth’s climatic conditions as well. Theories proposed include the idea that bacteria serve as a nucleus around which water and ice crystals may condense, influencing cloud formation and rain patterns.
