The thermophile are a type of bacteria that thrives at extreme temperatures of relatively 41°C to 122°C. The thermophiles are mostly found in the geothermally heated regions of the Earth such as hot springs and deep sea hydrothermal vents.

The thermophiles belong to the domain Archaea. The Archaea are prokaryotic cells that do not have an nuclei and can live in extreme conditions.
