We’re not sure if it’s exciting or not that scientists just discovered new ‘lifeforms’ inside of our bodies

Stanford University researchers have discovered virus-like lifeforms’ that exist inside human mouths and guts.

Smaller than a virus, the genetic material can still transfer information that can be read by a cell.

Named obelisks because of their rod-shaped structures, they are even smaller than viruses, but they can still transmit instructions to cells.
