Richard Vaughan+FollowRed Sea’s Alien Brine Pools Found!Deep in the Red Sea, scientists just stumbled on wild brine pools—think underwater lakes with zero oxygen, super salty water, and instant fish-killing power. But here’s the twist: microbes are thriving in these extreme conditions, living totally without sunlight! These pools are like mini time capsules and could even help us hunt for life on other planets. Oh, and the discovery happened in the last five minutes of a 10-hour dive. Talk about a close call! #ScienceNews #OceanMysteries #RedSea #Astrobiology #NatureDiscovery #Science00Share
Michael Flores+FollowFamily Finds 'Extinct' Red Mushroom!A family in Sri Lanka just snapped a pic of a wild, bright red mushroom in their garden—and it turned out to be a fungus last seen in 1919! Scientists thought Mutinus bambusinus was extinct, but nope, it just popped up in someone’s yard. Turns out, these funky stinkhorns rely on flies to spread their spores, and they don’t even need bamboo to grow. Citizen science for the win! Who knows what else is hiding in our backyards? #CitizenScience #Fungi #Biodiversity #NatureDiscovery #Stinkhorn #Science41Share
Jessica Hodge+FollowRare River Find After 22 Years!Imagine searching for something for 22 years and finally finding it! Scientists just uncovered two nymphs of a super rare mayfly species, Behningia baei, hiding under river sand in Thailand. This species hadn’t been seen since 2002, and now researchers think it might be more widespread than anyone thought. Not only is this a big win for science, but these little guys are also key players in their ecosystem. Nature always has surprises up its sleeve! #ScienceNews #RareFind #Biodiversity #NatureDiscovery #Ecosystem #Science00Share
