Discovery of unknown hydrogen in mid-ocean ridge points to hidden biosphere

from Duke University via Phys.org

Discovery of unknown hydrogen in mid-ocean ridge points to hidden biosphere Duke University via Phys.org By providing the first estimate of how much hydrogen is available to fuel microbial life in the sunless sub-seafloor crust beneath the Mid-Ocean Ridge (MOR), a new Duke University-led study sheds light on one of Earth's least understood biospheres. It may also help illuminate how similar conditions could support life in other extreme environments, from distant planets to early Earth itself. READ MORE
