🔋 Power from the rocks! Found a "natural battery."
🔋 Stone power! Found a "natural battery" to produce self-oxygen under the deep ocean!
🌊🌑 Stunned! "Dark Oxygen" (Dark Oxygen) Rediscovered at a depth of 4,000 meters!
Forget the old theory that oxygen must come from sunlight and photosynthesis! Because this is a huge discovery that could change the evolutionary history of life on Earth. 🌏✨
📍 What happened in the deep sea?
The team of researchers found that on the Pacific Ocean floor, the Clarion-Clipperton Zone (CCZ) has spontaneous oxygen production in a completely dark place!, originating from a potato-sized mineral lump called "Polymetallic Nodules." 🥔💎
🔋 "stone battery," a mechanism that does not rely on sunlight.
These mineral cubes don't just contain precious metals, they serve as "Geobattery" or natural batteries:
* ⚡ High Voltage: Voltage is found on mineral surface up to 0.95 volts.
* 💧 Separate water molecules: This pressure is enough to cause electrolysis process is to directly separate water into hydrogen and oxygen!
🌍 Why is this global?
* The point of origin of life may change: 🧬 Life may not always start with sunlight, which increases the likelihood of finding life on another star (such as the moon Enceladus or Europa).
* Undersea Mining Drama: 🏗️ These mineral nodules were wanted by the EV car camp, but now 25 countries are out on the brakes! Let's study the impact on the ecosystem before it is destroyed.
📢 This discovery reminds us that "we still know very little about the underwater world," and that interventions in nature that we do not yet understand can have unexpected consequences! 🐙🌊
