Unfortunately , multiple photos exist of the tardigrade .
不幸的是,这家伙是许多图片中都有的熊虫。
We had never heard of a tardigrade , but supposedly it 's one of the most resilient microscopic swamp-dwelling invertebrates and the inspiration for this private residence .
For instance , the minute tardigrade , also known as the water bear and which lives in mosses and other places , is said to be capable of surviving in the severest environments -- extreme aridity , temperature fluctuations of several hundred degrees , vacuums , strong radiation , and even outer space .
