Hello and welcome to SciShow Tangents, the likely competitive knowledge showcase I'm

your host Hank Green, and joining me this week as always is science expert, Sarah Reilly.

Hello.

And our resident, every man, Sam Schultz, but in addition to those two people, we have

a different person joining us this week as our special guest, science communicator, and

host of the podcast triplicates It's Amanda Wacker.

Hi.

Hi.

Thank you so much for being here.

I was on a podcast with you once, and you told me a story that I want you to tell again

that involved, involved a space and guns and bacteria, I think.

Um, yes, everyone's favorite microbe, but still a subtlest.

Ah, yes.

It's like the good old, the good old poopy microbe.

Yes.

I think you had an equally interesting camel poop fact about the solo subtlest, but my

solo subtlest fact was having to do with how survivable they are to being directly

impacted against a solid surface.

So these people took single, the solo subtlest spores, shot them out of wall, and they were

like, they can survive for up to 299 plus or minus 18 meters per second, which I don't

have a reference for that, but that seems really fast.

Yeah.
