Imagine brave scientists digging up long tubes of mud in freezing Antarctica—it's like finding buried treasure!
This mud is super cool because it's full of clues about what lived in the ocean long ago, even before we were born.
They can learn about how old the mud is, what animals lived there, and even how much pollution is in the water.
This helps us understand how the ocean and our planet are changing, which is really important for our future.
