Scientists using an underwater robot to explore three shipwrecks off Galveston have found what looks like a solidified eruption from a deep-sea volcano, according to KHOU-TV.
A team of researchers working at a command center at Texas A&M Galveston saw something that looked like a fourth shipwreck, but as the robot got closer, they realized it was an eruption of tar that solidified when it hit the water.
Thomas Heathman, a marine biology student working on the project, told KHOU that the team had never seen anything else like it in the northern Gulf of Mexico.
