Discovery Notes | The plants around the sample were alive and blooming. The mulch on top of the dirt has some white stuff that looked like really thick spiderwebs on top. I dug about 3 inches under the mulch and grabbed that dirt. |
Naming Notes | My partner and I's initials spell EWOK (Erin Walz and Olivia Kretlow). Also our phage has a short tail. Since our initials spell Ewok we decided to name it that after the little creatures from Star Wars. |
