| Sep 25 at 21:47 | comment | added | Questor | @AarghZombies there is a good paper on this here: nature.com/articles/s43247-024-01280-3. It is about volcanic ash/flow colonization by prokeryotes etc... But thats similar enough (sterilized habitat) to the glassed landmass to provide a fair comparision. | |
