Discovery NotesThis phage was found in a soil sample collected in Davie, Florida outside of Mako Hall near a huge water puddle that had formed from the rain the night before. The soil sample was collected at 2cm deep and it was moist and appeared to have other particles (possibly sand) in the sample. It was collected at 8:44 A.M.
Naming NotesThis phage was discovered on my birthday and it means relating to the stars. My name also means light/star so I thought it was fitting.
