Er, no, it was your selected quote: INACTIVE tardigrades. Which means they can never colonize the moon. They were sent in a cryptobiotic state, in epoxy resin. If the crash released them, they were released into the vacuum of space where they remain inactive indefinitely (until they gradually chemically degrade). To become active they would need water and to remain active they would need a water-based life support system with indefinite re-supply of air and nutrients to support exponential population growth, in a radiation-resistant vessel. Tardigrades don't play golf. The people who played golf on the moon had a means to return to earth after 24 hrs and mate back home. |
