| Discovery Notes | The soil sample was collected outside the Glaske Center for Engineering, Science, and Technology building at LeTourneau University on 23rd August 2022. The weather was slightly cloudy with a slight breeze, and 90% Humidity. It was not raining, but had rained in the past 24 hours. The ground was moist and covered with mulch. |
| Naming Notes | The name Mikedrop was chosen because MIKE was our lab group name, based on the first name initial of each of our group members, and bacteriophages morphologically hold a resemblance to microphones. At the end of a performance or speech, the presenter may intentionally drop their microphone, where by the “mic drop” gesture signals triumph. |
