No, Fast growing animals, ascidians, found in the Larsen A zone, a possible indication of biodiversity change after the ice shelves' collapse. The animals in the foreground are colonised by two crustaceans and a brittle star


Also, a new species of Crustacean found.....

.....heard to say,
"Lobster, where are you? ....I'm back!" :wink:

Seriously, this species, a suspected new species of Shackletonia, an amphipod crustacean sampled near Elephant Island, is only recently discovered in a marine ecosystem considered one of the least disturbed by humankind anywhere on the planet

An exploration team from many countries aboard the German research vessel Polarstern whose mission included charting the environmental impact of history's largest known ice shelf collapses. Polarstern's 52 marine explorers set out to find what indigenous forms of marine life existed under Larsen A and B, and what new organisms now are opportunistically moving in, redefining the ecosystem.

"The breakup of these ice shelves opened up huge, near pristine portions of the ocean floor, sealed off from above for at least 5,000 years, and possibly up to 12,000 years in the case of Larsen B," says Julian Gutt, a marine ecologist at Germany's Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research and chief scientist on the Polarstern expedition.

So, thank Global Warming for some nice pics.....

Jay...I'm biting my tongue on the words "wood" and "sticking"...just too much to say and not the right place.

Again another direction....JFK's lost love?

Eric

What's happening?

Did you wind your clock backwards or something?

Looks like your tree humour has affected something it shouldn't have?

Perhaps you should have a beer?

Fleeting, but spectacular: a 44-second video of a recent rocket launch. The rocket surpasses the speed of sound while passing through a faint cloud of ice crystals, sending ripples across the sky:
