Pando, AKA the Trembling Giant, is by far the most massive organism on the planet. The name is latin for "I spread," and it's an impressive exhibition of one of the more unique ways that life can propagate. To paraphrase a famous scientist: Nature, uh, finds a way. Come with me as I take a walk through this massive clonal colony of aspens in Utah.
