Life Where Life Isn't Possible
Edward Forbes launches device into ocean
The effect of this is him finding that the deeper his device went the less it brought back up.
He then concluded that nothing lived below 1,600 feet.
The effect of that is people believing that nothing lived that deep into the ocean.
People then challenged this theory
4,700 new species were found up to 16,000 feet.
Scientists concluded that organisms living that deep fed on marine snow
Starfish and oysters were brought up from 7,500 feet,
Scientists concluded that organisms living that deep fed on marine snow
Corals were hauled up from 2,500 feet
Scientists concluded that organisms living that deep fed on marine snow
In 1977 a team of geologist got into a mini-sub to prove a theory of geysers in the ocean
The effects of this reaserch was them finding that there were geysers
Another effect was them fidning many species of animals down below
They found mussels
anenomies
7 ft worms
Because of this they also found an ecosystem that didn't rely on the sun for energy
This discovery changed the ideas about the origins and requirements for life on Earth
"'What wasn't predicted is that there would be anything living there"
