Scientific paper

WE have investigated the possibility that common terrestrial microorganisms carried by spacecraft can survive entry into the atmosphere of Jupiter. In our experiments we used Escherichia coli B, Serratia marcescens, Aerobacter aerogenes, and Bacillus subtilis, routinely cultured in basic mineral medium1 with glucose (30 g/l.) as the carbon source, or in trypticase soy broth (TSB, 30 g/l.), sterilized by autoclaving at 15 pounds inch-2for 15 min. Plating was done using TSB with 1.5% agar.
