Gold Ball Found on the Seabed. PHOTO/ Science Alert
CALIFORNIA – A bunch scientist from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) discovered a mysterious spherical object on the seabed off the coast of Alaska. The object has a diameter of about 10 centimeters and is golden in color.
The object was discovered by a NOAA submarine explorer while on a mission to learn more about the relatively unknown deep waters off the coast of Alaska.
As reported by Science Alert, scientists call the object a “golden ball” because its texture is smooth and resembles skin.
Scientists have not been able to confirm what exactly the object is. However, they suspect that the object is most likely the egg shell of an unknown sea creature.
Another possibility is that the object is the remains of a dead sea sponge. Sea sponges can form structures that resemble balls, and their golden color can be caused by the minerals they contain.
To find out more about the object, scientists plan to take samples and study it further in the laboratory.
Here are several possible explanations for the golden ball object:
Egg shell
The most likely possibility is that the object is the egg shell of an unknown sea creature. Egg shells usually have a smooth, leather-like texture, and their golden color can be caused by the minerals they contain.
Remains of a sea sponge
Another possibility is that the object is the remains of a dead sea sponge. Sea sponges can form structures that resemble balls, and their golden color can be caused by the minerals they contain.
Man-made objects
A less likely possibility is that the object is a man-made object. However, this possibility seems less likely, due to the object’s location deep on the seabed.
Scientists are still continuing to study the golden ball object, and they hope to find a definitive answer about what the object actually is.
