Scientists from the University of Miami have found a deadly pool on the red seabed that killed anything swimming into it. According to the study, the salt water pool was revealed 1.7 kilometers below the surface using an underwater vehicle operated remotely. Scientists found a deadly pool for the last five minutes of ten hours.The researchers explained that the salt water pond was depressed in the seabed filled with very concentrated salt water and other chemical elements that were more salty than the surrounding oceans. They say that ponds under water can be stun or kill animals and even pickles they live.
Speaking to live science, the main researcher Sam Purkis described a deadly pool as “among the most extreme environments on earth” and said, “Every animal that deviates into salt water is immediately stunned or killed.”Furthermore, Mr. Purkis tells that fish, shrimp, and eels seem to use salt water for hunting. He explained that these creatures hid near a deadly pool to “feed Damn Creatures” who accidentally swim into it.
The main researcher states that the discovery of such a pond can help scientists know how the ocean was first formed on our planet. He also continued by saying that a salt water pool is home to a large number of microbes and rich in diversity. He stressed that this discovery is very important because it can help determine whether the alien planet with the same hostile conditions can accommodate any living things.”Until we understand the limits of life on earth, it will be difficult to determine whether alien planets can accommodate living things,” Purkis said.
Meanwhile, according to the New York Post, this is not the first collection of salt water discovered by scientists. Over the past 30 years, Oceanographer has been able to uncover the “Diegrady” deadly ponds in the Red Sea, Mediterranean Sea and Mexico Bay.
