but they're not the first to become lunar inhabitants, in the movie The Martian Matt Damon's character used his poop to fertilize his potato crop... Well, apparently the astronauts landing on the Moon didn't bring their poop back with them so the bacteria and bugs in our guts got left behind. They probably didn't survive, but as Jeff Goldblum said in Jurassic Park, life will find a way.
Hmmmm...note that in the movie as soon as the breakdown exposed said poop fertilizer to actual Mars conditions there was instant death to all and sundry. I'm thinking that micro-organisms adapted to living in comfy human guts most likely croaked immediately. These tardigrades, OTOH, are quite something.
