megangibson+FollowArctic Deep Sea Has a Secret Oasis?!Scientists just found a wild, thriving oasis 2.5 miles under the Arctic Ocean—where they thought almost nothing could survive! Instead of a barren wasteland, there’s a whole community of weird creatures living around a glowing methane mound. Robots sent down there captured scenes that look more like a sci-fi movie than the frozen Arctic. This changes everything we thought we knew about the deep sea and even how carbon moves through our planet. Nature is seriously full of surprises! #Science #ArcticDiscovery #DeepSea10Share
Patrick Simmons+FollowChlamydia Found in Arctic’s Deepest Waters?!Scientists just found chlamydia-related bacteria chilling two miles under the Arctic Ocean—yep, the same type that causes STIs in humans. These bacteria are thriving in a place with barely any oxygen and crazy pressure, which has everyone scratching their heads. Turns out, there’s a whole hidden world of microbes down there, and this discovery could totally change what we know about life in extreme places (and maybe even chlamydia itself). Nature is seriously wild! #Science #ArcticDiscovery #ScienceNews1110Share
