Shameless plug: you could try askscience@lemmy.world
Link seems to be trying to find a user rather than a community. At least in the Connect app.
Thanks! I forgot to put the exclamation mark at the front of the link. Hopefully it works now
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !askscience@lemmy.world
What is the stuff at the bottom of lake Superior?
The SS Edmund Fitzgerald and the brave men who died on board
I assume OP is referring to https://www.health.state.mn.us/communities/environment/hazardous/docs/sites/stlouis/lakesupbarrelshc0308.pdf
TL;DR The military dumped thousands of barrel of undocumented chemicals into Lake Superior in the 50s and 60s
Awesome. Our government does so much cool, responsible stuff.
What do you mean by evolve? Like, a creature that eats ships? The water and creatures eventually erode the ship to nothing. It’s not like Superior is some small lake that is going to dry up, it’s literally one of the largest lakes on the planet
the lake is so cold that microbes that eat bodies don’t live there so it’s said the bodies that sink in it just stay a body like the peat bog man
Sweet, more bodies for me
Might find your answer here around the 50,000 year mark.
