Carl Woese, of the University of Illinois, discovered archaea. He realized that while these creatures - the smallest, simplest organisms on earth - were similar to bacteria, and shared bacteria's key feature (no nucelus), their genes greatly resembled those of more advanced cells. He proposed that these new organisms be classified in their own kingdom, today known as "archaea."
