It is just amazing that people continue to find new things on our planet. Take Loki's Castle for instance. Deep in the Northern Atlantic Ocean scientists have discovered another set of black smokers. These are in an area on the mid Atlantic Ridge where vents release super heated chemicals into the ocean. The cool thing here is that they are in a relatively stable area, they are huge and they may be the oldest of such formations to be found. I wonder what kinds of creatures they will discover here and if this deep sea ecosystem will be any different from the others previously discovered. Only time will tell!
