….is immediately touched upon discovery
I have no sense of scale based on this image
not untouched anymore though 😖
It was found 700 feet below the entrance of Lechuguilla Cave, a “sister cave” in the back country of Carlsbad Caverns National Park. (The park covers 46,766 acres.) It was discovered in 1993, but not entered until October, he said. Lechuguilla is one of the 10 longest caves in the world., the National Park Service says.

I’ve watched too many films and read too many books, my immediate thought was – contains a virus/parasite/bacteria that will wipe out humanity.

Looks like when I use a glass jar for bacon grease then it breaks in the middle
Someone check for microplastics
Looks like mold on bread ngl.
I’m struggling to understand the scale of this! Looks like it is a micro camera travelling down an artery or something but is this actually huge?

I can’t tell if this pool is really big, or really small.

The fountain of youth!!!! (Minus the fountain by the looks of things).
Ofc nobody touched it because there were no humans there hundreds of thousands of years ago.
I can’t tell if it’s a teeny little pool or a big pool
