Deep beneath the Earth’s surface, up to 70 feet down, scientists have uncovered something astonishing: a brand new phylum of microbes, CSP1-3, that might hold the key to natural water purification. In this episode of Nerd Werk Nexus, we explore how this discovery could transform the way we think about environmental science, groundwater safety, and biotech innovation. From ancient hot spring origins to modern bioremediation potential, this is one discovery you won’t want to overlook.
🎧 Tune in as we unpack:
How these microbes were found (and why in Iowa & China)
Why CSP1-3 challenges long-standing assumptions about deep-soil life
The implications for water filtration, biotech, and environmental engineering
