Patrick Simmons+FollowArctic Ocean’s Hidden Methane MysteryScientists just found wild hydrothermal vents nearly 2 miles under the Arctic Ocean—and they’re spewing crazy amounts of methane! These vents, called the Jøtul Field, are a total game-changer because of their location and the climate impact of all that methane. Plus, they’re home to some super weird creatures that don’t even need sunlight to survive. The ocean’s still mostly unmapped, so who knows what else is lurking down there? Would you want to explore miles beneath the sea? #ArcticDiscovery #OceanMysteries #ClimateScience #Science40Share
Tamara Jones+Follow5 Shark Attacks That’ll Give You ChillsThink sharks are just movie monsters? Think again. Shark attacks are super rare, but when they happen, they’re unforgettable. From the USS Indianapolis tragedy where 150 sailors were lost to sharks, to the real-life Jersey Shore attacks that inspired ‘Jaws,’ these stories are wild. There’s even a case where a woman was swallowed whole in front of her family. If you thought the ocean was scary, wait till you read these true tales! #SharkAttacks #TrueCrime #OceanMysteries #Science5928Share
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
Zachary Gutierrez+FollowAntarctica’s See-Through Squid Spotted!An iceberg breaking off Antarctica just led to a wild deep-sea discovery: scientists caught the first-ever footage of the glacial glass squid! This little see-through squid has only ever been seen as whale food or fishing bycatch—until now. Even cooler, the team also filmed a baby colossal squid (yes, the giant one). Turns out, the Southern Ocean is full of bizarre, mysterious creatures we’ve barely glimpsed. Imagine what else is hiding under the ice! #OceanMysteries #DeepSea #Antarctica #ScienceNews #SquidDiscovery #Science200Share
Zachary Gutierrez+FollowDid You Hear About the Monster Wave?A buoy off Vancouver Island got yeeted 58 feet into the air by a rogue wave—the most extreme one ever recorded! Scientists say this kind of freak wave only pops up once every 1,300 years. It was nearly three times taller than the waves around it. Wild, right? Turns out, these waves can take out ships and rigs, and with climate change, we might see even bigger ones. Nature’s flex is real! #RogueWave #OceanMysteries #ClimateChange #ScienceNews #WatercoolerMoment #Science4220Share
megangibson+Follow🦈 Guess Who Just Made Their Ocean Debut!Hey guys! So, researchers just caught a painted swell shark on camera in the wild for the first time ever near Timor-Leste! 🦈📸 These dudes were chillin’ at 1,800 feet below, totally unknown till now. Such a big win for marine science! What’s wild? It shows how using new tech like underwater cams can help uncover these ocean mysteries. Seriously, we've got so much left to explore down there! 🌊 Thoughts? 🤔 #OceanMysteries #SharkDiscovery #MarineAdventures #OceanMysteries #SharkDiscovery #MarineAdventures #Science51Share
