In June 1965, Thomas Brock, a microbiologist at Indiana University, discovered a new form of bacteria in the thermal vents of Yellowstone National Park. They can survive at near-boiling temperatures. At that time the upper temperature for life was thought to be 73 °C. He found that one particular spring, Octopus Spring, had large amounts of pink, filamentous bacteria at temperatures of 82–88 °C.
