Mysterious life form found on ship

A mysterious black goo found leaking from a ship’s rudder shaft while docked in Cleveland has been identified as a previously unknown microbial life form. Discovered aboard the research vessel Blue Heron and dubbed "ShipGoo001," the organisms appear uniquely adapted to thrive in warm, oxygen-free, grease-laden environments. Genetic analysis revealed they are related to microbes found in petroleum-rich settings, suggesting they were dormant in the ship’s grease until conditions allowed them to flourish. Scientists see this as a striking example of how man-made environments can host undiscovered life.
