Chernobyl Fungus Appears to Have Evolved an Incredible Ability

sciencealert.com · Nov 30

The Chernobyl exclusion zone may be off-limits to humans, but ever since the Unit Four reactor at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant exploded nearly 40 years ago, other forms of life have not only moved in but survived, adapted, and appeared to thrive.

That fungus is called Cladosporium sphaerospermum, and some scientists think its dark pigment – melanin – may allow it to harness ionizing radiation through a process similar to the way plants harness light for photosynthesis. This proposed mechanism is even referred to as radiosynthesis.

🔁 @yogthos:

A radiation-eating fungus, Cladosporium sphaerospermum, thrives inside the Chernobyl reactor. Scientists theorize its melanin pigment may perform "radiosynthesis," harnessing deadly ionizing radiation for energy like plants use sunlight. While not yet proven, the fungus demonstrably grows better in radiation and may even act as a radiation shield, a stunning adaptation to a man-made disaster.

- Summary: A heartfelt ode to FreeBSD praises its quiet coherence, long-term stability, and deliberate design, likening it to a modern open-source mainframe. The author asks the project to prioritize fearless updates, thousand-day uptimes, and hardware lifecycle alignment; to separate server solidity from desktop pace via CURRENT/RELEASE; to harden pkgbase into clear stability channels; and to preserve a calm, ego-free culture. The wish: stay different, stay trustworthy, remain the place you choose when you need something built to last.
