Day 2 #NASA #OxyMoRon team is going sampling 1 billion-year old brines at 2900 m depth below surface. Walking 4km in the heat and dusty tunnels to get to our site and back. #mblscience ⚒️🧪 #darkoxygen #deeplife #microbiome @karenlloyd.bsky.social @jamesdinneen.bsky.social @hfspo.bsky.social
Day 3 at 2900 m depth is mainly for analyzing gas and isotope geochemistry. @davidbekaert.bsky.social brought a mass spec and colleagues from @whoi.edu and @ethz.ch are collecting ancient brines in pressure vessels. #darkoxygen @mblscience.bsky.social @hfspo.bsky.social #OxyMoRon #NASA #deeplife 🧪⚒️
The International Symposium on Subsurface Microbiology (ISSM) is in Vienna this year. Aug 30th - Sept 4th
I am so excited! Early Bird deadline is April 30th.
