Sea-Monkey packet #1 was poured onto a dish in picture (a). Carl Linneaus would have asked, is it a mineral, plant, or animal.[1] It looks like a mineral, salt. Was von Braunhut right that the dead mineral pile magically turns into instant life?[2] I saw a speck in the mineral salt that looked suspicious. I scooped that speck onto the microscope plate shown in picture (b) and looked at it with a Celestron 5MP USB microscope. Picture (c) was taken with the microscope and a round brown object was seen. In their handbook, they describe the Instant-Life crystals in which the eggs are enclosed. The packet contained Artemia Salina eggs mixture with salts. Packet 1 contains iodine-free sodium chloride, sodium sulfate, sodium carbonate, magnesium sulfate, magnesium chloride, potassium chloride, calcium chloride, a chlorine removing agent such as sodium thiosulfate, and some dried eggs of Artemia Salina according to the patent.[3]
