This undated photo released by the National Oceanography Centre in Southampton, England, Monday April 12, 2010, shows a cloud of smoky water billowing from the top of a tower of metal ore at a volcanic vent five kilometers (more than three miles) beneath the surface of the Caribbean. The vent, located in the Cayman Trough, is the deepest ever discovered, a British scientific expedition says. Experts hope that studies of the vent and the exotic creatures which bask in its warmth will yield insight into how life formed on earth, and perhaps elsewhere too.(AP Photo/National Oceanography Centre)**EDITORIAL USE ONLY**AP - Scientists using a remote-controlled submarine have discovered the deepest known volcanic vent and say the superheated waters inside could contain undiscovered marine species and perhaps even clues to the origin of life on earth.
