A type of black fungi that eats radiation was discovered inside the Chernobyl nuclear reactor.In 1991, the strange fungi was found growing up the walls of the reactor, which baffled scientists due to the extreme, radiation-heavy environment.Researchers eventually realized that not only was the fungi impervious to the deadly radiation, it seemed to be attracted to it.A decade later, researchers tested some of the fungi and determined that it had a large amount of the pigment melanin -- which is also found, among other places, in the skin of humans.https://www.foxnews.com/science/chernobyl-fungi-eats-radiation

It's the Protomolecule!
Somebody needs to alert Al Sharpton. Somebody's exploiting black fungus.
@Cyber Liberty Al IS a black fungus,so he's likely to want compensation for any killed.
We have seen it before....
@Smokin Joe Really hard to believe that Steve McQueen starred in a movie like that,ain't it? How cool do you have to be to still have a career after THAT?
Is the fungi radioactive? after it finishes it's meal.
I suspect it is, which renders it useless as a means of cleaning up a radioactive mess.
