Giant tardigrades of Terra Incognita

Excerpts from the journal of the late Dr. Harry Johnson's trip to Antarctic a in late 1971. The expedition encountered a phenomen at sea that they coul d not understand scientifically and evidently decided not to record. The sh ips log simply says, "Steamed all day, nothing unusual happened". Whereas D r. Johnson's journal describes a floating moss cushion, giant nematodes, ro tifers, mites, and tardigrades all shrouded in a surface level cloud. Some low quality pictures appear to confirm the events recorded in the journal. The authors draw no conclusions.
