What is underground [DISCOVER]?



A little bit closer to the surface of the earth, there

are large numbers of thermophilic bacteria living down

to 2.75 km underground at temperatures of 75°C. 

[That's a lot of heat].  The bacterial life at greater

distances underground has apparently not been

explored.
