“🔍 For the first time, scientists have observed seafloor spreading in real time.
Seafloor spreading is the process by which new oceanic crust is formed at mid-ocean ridges - a geological process that has shaped entire ocean basins over millions of years.
During a research expedition in the Indian Ocean, scientists had just deployed a suite of instruments when a series of earthquakes triggered a seafloor spreading event, allowing them to observe the process as it unfolded.
The findings offer rare new insights into how new oceanic crust forms and how the seafloor continues to evolve…”

“Earth’s outermost layer - the crust - is constantly renewing itself. It’s broken into giant chunks called tectonic plates that pull apart, push against or slide past one another, creating grand geologic features.
Underwater mountain ranges, or mid-ocean ridges, for instance, generally take shape where two tectonic plates are moving away from each other. Magma can then bubble up in between, solidifying and turning into new oceanic crust as part of a process called seafloor spreading. Although the phenomenon has created entire ocean basins, it remains quite mysterious because it happens so deep in the water.
Now, for the first time, scientists have observed this dynamic activity happening in real time. They describe their findings - and their stroke of luck - in a study [link above], shedding light on a mechanism that made roughly two-thirds of Earth’s crust…”

The system consists of 900 advanced in-water instruments worth $369M, deployed in the N. #Atlantic & N. #Pacific by the #OceanObservatoriesInitiative. They provide realtime #open_access to critical #oceanic measurements.
https://oceanobservatories.org/2026/05/announcement-on-ooi-descoping/
#OOI will extract these from the ocean over 15 months. This comes after the #Trump admin fired the oversight board of #NSF, their funder. The fact that they chose not to leave them in the ocean speaks volumes about their true intentions.

Looking forward to share our new single "Diamond" with you this coming Friday. It was written and recorded on the fly in just four days, or rather, four late evenings, in our very own music studio. The song is about love and loss. Life is tough, life is beautiful, life is fleeting. Precious like a gem and delicate like a rose. See you all in five days.

"Insanity" - Oceanic
Jorinde is the singer, David and Frank on the keyboards. I have no clue who the goons dancing are.
"Insanity" was the apotheosis of happy house, uplifting music with a fast beat. Massive in the north, huge in Scotland, but derided in That London. If you wanted to hear this, you had to buy the single, radio would not play it.

The stakes are high for this year’s #hurricane season: more storms, greater intensity, and less time to prepare. According to the National #Oceanic and #Atmospheric Administration, there is a 60% chance of an above-normal Atlantic hurricane season on the horizon. https://www.mercycorps.org/blog/helping-caribbean-brace-for-hurricane-season

Back on my bullshit.
Whew. Man, those hose boot protectors are a BITCH to slide on.
Fairly happy about putting this rig together. #ScubaPro #Mk20 #D400 #D350 and a #Oceanic pressure gauge plus a #PolarDivingSystems #Nitrox computer.
Iffy on the computer. I used them for a few dives, but I also found out they quickly become more beeping and booping than knowing my dive profile, keeping an eye on the depth, time and air. YMMV.
