This also implies life on most of the other planets - Mars for sure, Venus maybe. Microbes living at 250 degrees, 20,000 time sea level pressure, eating fool's gold, breathing sulfur.
Long after we are gone there will still be life here.
Also, the eugenics freaks, as their technology advances, are going to be able to create humans with these features. Custom humans for custom environments.
We are just at the dawn of that tech.
