Looking At Water From Inside of Two Geodes Under a Microscope: Secrets of the Forbidden Gushers

Ғылым және технология

I know that the quality of this isn't where I want it at all but I also know that you all just REALLY WANT TO KNOW. So here we go. If you have any questions feel free to leave a comment. As to how long the water was trapped inside I don't have that specific information however these geodes are estimated to have begun forming 330 million years ago as the result of a Mississippian aged extinction event. The water's PH level was between 7 and 8. Thank you to everybody who watches and a special thanks for Professor Locmelis and Ms. Clark. Another special thanks to Gary Ewings who provided the most recent two geodes.

    A friends dad was a geologist and had a small lapidary workshop in their basement. He would tumble some rocks for weeks to polish them. Also had a large diamond blade wet saw which could cut up to 5" thickness. One geode's edge was sliced off just shy of the cavity and the fluid inside could be seen through the remaining thin crystalline wall .. very rare to make such a close cut and not leak.

And that’s perfectly ok. 😊 When you stop having a little chuckle is when you lose your perspective on life. Keeping a sense of humor, even one some ppl may deem “immature” is vital to the survival of ppl and our mental health. 😄 So, go ahead and have that chuckle….just keep it inside when keeping certain company. I guarantee you most of them are also having a “filtered laugh” as well. 😆 ✌🏻😊

    As someone who doesn't know much of anything, I'd like to share my opinion. I admire that you started. I'm happy to see you try. If you wait until everything is perfect, nothing will ever come. And where you feel the need to apologize to your viewers, skip past that urge and express the gratitude you feel for their time. I'd imagine its a more difficult sentiment to convey, but I bet it will help alleviate this subpar feeling thats got you roped. At the end of the day, it's the same emotion, almost. "Thank you for bearing with me," can be much more appeasing than "sorry, I'm such a bother."

While living organisms might have been cool I'm honestly much more interested and fascinated in those magnified slides and how the microscope was able to pick out different minerals via refraction of light. I was riveted to the screen through this whole thing lol. The little globules and pieces left over from the formation of the crystals were cool to see, like you were looking back in time to the birth of this geode and the cleavage marks on the fragments being so easy to see when you know just how tiny these granules of crystal really are is so neat. The professor and phd student were really interesting to listen to, as well! 💗

    Biologist here. Your channel is quite interesting, and your videos are fascinating. Talking about microorganisms, I didn't see any field of view lower than 250nm. There are viruses smaller than 10nm, so viral presence might be possible. Of course, that raises other questions, including if there's any chance a microorganism would be able to survive in those conditions (temperature, pressure, etc.). I found a very interesting article titled "Survival of viruses in water", by A. Pinon, which I really enjoyed. But there's no conclusive answer to those questions, specially since you were not able to find signs of microbial activity. Some other articles that are very interesting are: -Endolithic microbes of rocks, their community, function and survival strategies, by Sajjad, et al., 2022. -Microbiology Resource of the Month: Rock-Inhabiting Microbes, by A. Hagen, 2021.

    Some of those slides would make amazing art pieces. They are stunning! Especially ones where the light is manipulated. Seriously, blow it up on a canvas or even just a decent sized print, I would buy one. I actually took screenshots of a couple to use a the pic on my lock screen. Just a thought because I haven't seen anything like it before. This isn't a demand, but a suggestion. I don't know if you'll read this, probably too long but I don't know how to be more concise, sorry. Aside from the entertaining educational aspects of this video, I read through a bunch of the comments and I wish I could just give you a hug. Platonic, not trying to step on your lady friend's toes ..or my man's lol. It's obvious hiw much you care about the content you create, those of us watching, and your passion for this field. When you care that much, it's impossible not to take the negative stuff to heart. That's not a choice, it's how most of us are wired. It takes 3 positive comments to counter-not overtake, but equal to-one negative. And you add pressure by wanting to do a good job. Like so many others have said, you've got this. Of course you're going to make mistakes. Of course you'll never please everyone. But most of the people watching and subscribing are because we want to. A video or short got our attention and we liked what we saw. That proves you're on the right track. Your editing and stuff will improve over time. You know all this, just trust it. I can't wait to see how your channel grows and where you take it. You, sir, are a fantastic content creator and as I said before, I am so glad I found you. If you read this far, thank you.

    Oh yes, a lot crystals actually form from hydrothermal and other aqueous forms of deposition. So the water absolutely is the reason the crystals formed at all. As for the water sitting in there affecting it - maybe? It likely ran out of enough mineral content to form larger crystals. And thank you for the kind words...though I know I will stress at least some. This has been a real learning process for me.

    @@orycroft2020 True. There is excitement but a lot of my stress came from very sudden and extreme pressure. To not lose an open door, to not disappoint people (even though I knew I would), and to do my best - as well as pressure to do some things I frankly didn't want to do. It was a bombardment every time I opened my phone. People screaming about the water. It's been a tremendous blessing and I've gotten to reach out to wonderful people - but it took everything to not just check out the first month or so. It was an awful lot.

    Hi, could you also analyse this water chemically? I thought that's what the video would be about mostly. I think it would be interesting to compare its pH and the trace mineral(?)/ion composition to normal water (e.g. typical groundwater, river water, tap water etc.). It would also answer your question about whether microorganisms can or do live there. Microorganisms obviously need a source of energy, so unless there isn't some compound for them to break down, finding living ones will be difficult. Apart from that, all living beings contain some of the same elements. Carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, and very importantly nitrogen, which is in the bases of DNA and RNA. I'm sure that microorganisms would leave a detectable signature of these elements in the water. Personally, I'm quite certain that there aren't any living microorganisms in geodes, unless the water is in contact with the outside world, but I suppose there could be bacterial endospores in there (=a dormant state of certain bacterial genera), depending on the circumstances of how the water got into the geode. Scientists found endospores that were I think 250 million years old in salt crystals, and they managed to bring them back to life! [Edit: I looked it up, and yes, it was indeed 250 million years. The paper was published in Nature in October 2000.] Endospores are potentially immortal when they're in the right conditions. So this is the only option in my opinion/according to my knowledge, which mostly comes from my biology bachelor's degree. Edit: This was simply a suggestion. I'm not a native, so I don't know whether the way I phrased it was rude or too demanding. In any way, I didn't mean it like that.
