摘要：

Cryptoendolithic communities and black meristematic fungi from the Antarctic desert have been shown to survive under simulated space and Martian conditions in ground-based Experiment Verification Tests. An experiment was set to test their resistance under actual space and simulated Martian conditions on the International Space Station in the framework of the EXPOSE-EuTEF Consortium, LIFE-ESA project.
