  "textContent": "Space-based experiments show fungi can efficiently extract valuable metals from meteorites in microgravity, advancing prospects for asteroid biomining and sustainable resource use. As humans look toward deep-space travel, there is one group of travelers that will inevitably come along: microbes. They are impossible to separate from us, living on our skin, inside our bodies, and [...]",
