Description

The source of the deep sea electrical currents on … has been identified by ….

The ocean floor is home to a complex species of cold-water coral with electrogenetic capabilities. This species uses specialized organelles to generate current to lure microorganisms as both a means of sustenance and communication.

Our survey probes are acting as a stimulant for the coral, which reacts by increasing its electrical output whenever we change a transmission frequency.

By carefully modulating our interactions with this deep water species, we can increase the planet's energy output without disrupting the delicate ecosystem.
