Tardigrade Strong (Original design color)) T-Shirt
Tardigrades are real and they are among us. They have not one but six amazing superpowers described in the design. Popularized by Cosmos hosted by Neil deGrasse Tyson, tardigrades are extremophiles that use their bizarre and alien ways to find a new niche for themselves -- in sciency pop-culture. Go to the following link for a large, clear version of the design http://i.imgur.com/evo3NuR.jpg ...and check out the versions of this design in GREEN, BLUE, and PURPLE. An excellent conversation starter. The text reads as follows: Tardigrades can endure hellish temperatures well above water's boiling point and have been adapting to difficulty for 550 million years. Tardigrades shrugged off all five global mass extinctions and are so successful they are likely to outlive us, even if we destroy ourselves. Tardigrades can enter a state of cryptobiosis, lie dormant for 100 years, and then come back to life with just a single drop of water. Tardigrades can survive the vacuum of outer space and handle six times the steel-crushing pressure of the ocean's deepest point. Tardigrades are able to tolerate 500,000 rads of ionizing radiation, hundreds of times higher than the lethal dose for a tender human. Tardigrades can take a bath in liquid helium and withstand temperatures as low as 1 degree above absolute zero--as low as you can go.
