This week I'm interviewing an expert on one of the most incredible animals: tardigrades! These itty bitty babies are also known as water bears or moss piglets -- I think they look like potato walruses. Tardigrades are known for being super small (1.5mm at their longest) and near indestructible. They can survive extreme heat, extreme cold, high altitudes, deep seas, dehydration, radiation, and exposure to outer space. I already have a LOT of questions. Tell me what you want to know.
