The sediment in these cores is pungent. ‘Smells like a new phylum’ says Stavros. We are all hoping for a new old one.

I love late night science and extractions are one of the most rewarding ways to spend an evening when we get to sequence right on board! Having a wonderful time doing real time metagenomics on the Falkor (too)! @emaguilarpine.bsky.social @moorefound.bsky.social @schmidtocean.bsky.social

In a couple of days, my grad student Stavros Trimmer will present his new Asgard archaea culture at the GRC Archaea. He named it Skadiarchaeum after Skadi, the Norse goddess of skiing and hunting. Cartoon of Skadi based on cryoET, which was performed together with with @florianwollweber.bsky.social

little displays of kindness on the #LPSC2025 “artistic creations” board
A close-up photograph of the “artistic creations board “at LPSC 2025. It is a black pushpin board, with no cards that participants have colored, written on, placed stickers on. there are five cards in this scene, and three of them are about LGBTQ people. The top one, and my favorite, is a trans pride flag in blue pink and white, with some moon stickers in a row on the top and bottom, and in the middle, it says “the moon is trans“. In the middle is a placard that says space is for everyone next to a rainbow colored ringed planet. Below that is a sketch of the moon with a giant inclusive pride flag sticking out of it, and the text “space ( and NASA science) is for everyone.”
