We have some pretty amazing organisms on our very complex planet. Blue Whales weighing over 100 tons, giraffes with 10 foot necks, cheetahs that can sprint up to 60MPH...but some of the most spectacular living beings are those that many of us don't even know exist. Meet the Waterbear, an animal which, unfortunately, doesn't live up to it's name, yet it's the only animal known to be able to survive in outer space...take a look.
