When James, our master of microscopes, was looking through samples he’d received from Spain, he didn’t expect to see this-a creature straight out of a horror movie, with dark reddish brown eyes and tentacles streaming out of its mouth.

It's crazy that a channel with almost a million subs is calling it quits when such high end content is so rare.

So sad that this series will be coming to an end. If I may be so bold, I recommend the book, "Oxygen: the Molecule that Made the World", by Dr. Nick Lane. Even though it was published in 2002, it is a tour de force of the history, geology, geochemistry, biochemistry and evolution that produced oxygen in our atmosphere. And it still is remarkably up to date.

They keep reminding me of Christmas tree worms. They are beautiful. I recommend that everyone look them up. They're also tube worms and come in the most vibrant colours. I always think of tube worms as underwater flowers. That's what they look like to me.

@darksidegryphon5393 Ай бұрын

Both humans and the worms are simply tubes with fancy bits attached, looking for stuff to put on one end and places where to put what comes out the other.

Molecular oxygen is extremely rare in the universe, because it is so reactive. The entire reason Earth has as much oxygen as it does is due to photosynthetic microorganisms. Which is also a miracle that they've reduced CO2 content to virtually nil and are still able to live.

@nobody.of.importance Ай бұрын

Oxygen is like a twenty dollar bill lying on the ground in public. They're EXTREMELY rare in nature because people so readily grab it up and claim it as their own, yet $20 are very common and lots of people are walking around with one.

I love my tube worms, I am from Spain, every rock in the sea is filled with their holes.
