So the Arctic Goo natural, or nano?

The next day the floating substance arrived offshore from Barrow, about 90 miles east of Wainwright….

“It’s certainly biological….,by the smell and the makeup of it, it’s some sort of naturally occurring organic or otherwise marine organism.”

He saw some jellyfish tangled up in the stuff, and someone turned in what was left of a dead goose — just bones and feathers — to the borough’s wildlife department.

“From the air it looks brownish with some sheen, but when you get close and put it up on the ice and in the bucket, it’s kind of blackish stuff … (and) has hairy strands on it.”

“It kind of has an odor; I can’t describe it,” he said.

The Arctic Goo does have hair in it. A gag inducing amount of hair :

Meanwhile, the brownish-blackish gunk is drifting along the coast to the northeast, Brower said.

“This stuff is moving with the current,” he said. “It’s now on beyond Barrow and probably going north at this point.”

Science fiction movies of the 1950s tell us the mysterious blobs of glob will eventually beach themselves, form one giant hairy mass and start swallowing fishing villages.

But they can’t freeze it to stop it, however, this stuff is already thriving in icy waters.

The rest of the Anchorage Daily News story is here and they’ve got more photos of the Arctic Goo With Hair, and an aerial video of it stretching for miles.
