German, senior
scientist, WHOI Geology
& Geophysics
Department</strong><br>
Not all life on Earth
depends on sunlight. One
of the biggest discoveries
in ocean science
at the end of the last
century is that life can
also exist in the absence
of photosynthesis.
This life is sustained by
energy released at the
ocean floor when seawater
and rocks
interact: a process known
as chemosynthesis. Since
2000, it has become
apparent that
saltwater oceans also
exist in abundance (much
more than on Earth)
throughout the solar
system. Now, WHOI
researchers are preparing
to collaborate with NASA
scientists and
engineers to search for
life beyond Earth. Their
targets are not the oceans
of exoplanets
yet to be found orbiting
distant stars, but right
here in our own solar
system—within the
reach of robots that can
be launched in the next
decade.</p>

seaweed grown
at large-scale offshore

U.S., macroaglage
(seaweed) is primarily
used in food and food

Wirsen, oceanographer
emeritus, WHOI Biology
Department</strong><br>
The world’s oceans have an
average depth of 3,500
meters, and the deep sea
is the largest
biosphere on Earth both by
area and by volume. Learn
how research on how
microbes have
adapted to living under
the cold temperatures,
high pressures, and low
nutrients of the
deep sea was sparked by
the accidental sinking and
subsequent recovery of the
submersible
Alvin in 1968 and 1969. On
the flip side, when
deep-sea hydrothermal
vents were discovered
some 40 years ago,
researchers branched into
studying these rich oases
of life. Vent
sites are home to many
previously unknown
microbes and animals. They
rely on energy
from the inner earth to
supply the chemicals for
growth, rather than
photosynthetically
supplied food that
sparsely rains down to
nourish the majority of
the deep sea. In these
extreme
vent environments, life at
the highest temperature
known to exist on our
planet has
been found—121° C (or
250°F). Years of research
using both ships and
submersibles such
as Alvin have helped us
gain insight into their
growth and survival and
also taught us that
the deep sea is not a wise
choice as a site for waste
disposal or seafloor
mining.</p>
