Members of the Georgia Tech dance team swabbed the bottoms of their shoes, their cell phones, and even underneath the seats at Bobby Dodd Stadium to collect microbes.

Believe it or not, the Georgia Tech dancers will load all that material up, and launch it into space!

"The purpose of this whole experiment is to see how diff microbes grow in space versus how they grow here on earth," said dancer Shelby Bottoms. Bottoms is also an aerospace engineering student at Georgia Tech. "We swabbed railings, we swabbed seats where students sit during the games, we swabbed where the football players sit [??? ] ," Bottoms said.

All those microbes will be loaded up onto the Space X Falcon 9 rocket and launched into space where they'll be studied at the International Space Station.

They all look like Bottoms to me.

It didn't need the boldface and underlining. The idea of Bottoms swabbing where people sit jumps out by itself.
