About Perspectograph
Contrary to our common belief, we are not the dominant life forms on Earth. We share our planet with approximately a nonillion (1030) microbial cells. This staggering number is far greater than the estimated number of stars in the universe!
Microbes inhabit every conceivable corner of our planet, even our bodies, where they greatly outnumber human cells. They are the true inhabitants of Earth, having been here billions of years before humans, thriving in the most inhospitable conditions. They would most likely survive in the event of an apocalypse.
Perspectograph brings to light the importance of these microorganisms in the functioning of our planet. It also explains why they can be likened to the Cosmic Turtle, a symbol of life-sustaining powers.
