== Description ==
Bacteria appear as pattered mats at close range, but look like dark puddles from ~200m away. They do not protrude above the terrain and hence are invisible on Night Vision. They appear on flat ground: most commonly next to craters, but also in the middle of plains and hilly terrain.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteDangerous/comments/123enkb/exobiology_a_2023_updated_guide/</ref>

Bacterium can be very hard to find, as it tends to blend into the terrain. A good trick is to use the [[Camera suite|free cam]] on an [[SRV]] to get a bird's-eye view of the area while driving, and patches of Bacterium should stick out like a sore thumb. Searching at night is not recommended.
