      In 2019 I discovered new bacteria, Acinetobacter terrae, Acinetobacter terrestris. They are from the environment. Acineto=something that cant move, terrae=earth/land, terrestris =from the earth

      Not me – that would be an exciting thing to do. I know people do discover new bacteria every year – it would be a great field to get into.
