| Discovery Notes | It was quite hot that day. 98 degrees F.The soil was moist and warm and smelled a bit fertilized and was filled with with bugs. I thought it seemed gross, so my train of thought was something had to be in there to kill the smelly bacteria. |
| Naming Notes | My phage was all sorts of trouble for me, so I thought it would need a pretentious name for being such a meanie. Therefore, Copernicus III was dubbed. |
