summery:
scientistes collected samples from dead hydrothermal vents using Alvin (the submittable used for exploring the titanic). they found a rare kind of succession with microbes. these microbes feed on the vents them selves. before this dead hydrothermal vents were thought to be devoid of life.
critique:
i thought it was interesting because i never thought of hydrothermal vents being dead in the first place let alone life on them.
impact:
new species will be discovered.
