Deinococcus aerius strain TR0125 is a bacterium isolated from the high atmosphere above Japan that shows strong resistance to desiccation, UV-C, and gamma radiation. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of D. aerius (4.5 Mb), which may provide useful genetic information supporting its biochemical features.
