Grapefruit-size vertebra and robust rib bones come into view in irregular chunks of sandstone as paleontologist Fernando Novas uses a hammer and chisel to chip away at what may be one of the largest and most complete skeletons of a long-necked marine reptile called a plesiosaur.
The beast would've swum using enormous flippers in the waters, covering what is now Patagonia, some 65 million years ago, Novas and his colleagues have found.
Paleontologists are still carefully removing the hard sandstone surrounding the plesiosaur's skeleton, but they expect the newfound marine reptile will be a previously unknown genus and species, said project leader Novas, a paleontologist at the Bernardino Rivadavia Natural Sciences Museum in Buenos Aires, Argentina. [See photos of the Patagonian plesiosaur]
Novas showed the plesiosaur to a Live Science reporter visiting Argentina in November. Its four flippers each measure more than 4 feet (130 centimeters) long and its entire body would've extended about 23 feet (7 meters) when alive.
"The tail is emerging very well," Novas said, gesturing at his progress. Even though the bones are still encased in rock, the finding is the most complete and articulated (meaning the bones aren't scattered, but sit in the correct position) plesiosaur on record, Novas said.
The plesiosaur lived during the Late Cretaceous, about "30 minutes before the fall of the asteroid," he said, jokingly. It lay buried in the sandstone for tens of millions of years, until Novas followed up on a tip, which led to him and his colleagues excavating the creature in 2009.
It all started when Rowan University paleontologist Kenneth Lacovara, who spent years in Patagonia excavating Dreadnoughtus, the most complete super-massive dinosaur known to scientists, heard that there were fossils near the shore of Argentino Lake, in the Patagonian province of Santa Cruz. Lacovara visited the fossils, but didn't have time to lead an excavation. Instead, Lacovara told Novas about the tip later over coffee, encouraging his friend to excavate the bones.
By happenstance, tour guides in El Califate, a city next to Argentino Lake, had invited Novas to speak to them about geology and paleontology. He flew from Buenos Aires to El Califate, and after the lesson asked them about the fossils in the lake.
"They said, 'Yes, we know about that. We can go tomorrow,'" Novas recalled.
The next day, they went to the lake's edge. Part of a single flipper and a section of tail were visible beneath the water. Novas called his colleague at the museum, paleontologist Marcelo Isasi, who promised to help excavate the fossils, even if he had to wear a scuba suit.
Excavation and examination
After getting permission from the landowner, Gerardo Povazsán, a small group of paleontologists got to work, excavating the skeleton in October 2009. The crew made a fort around the skeleton, placing a circular perimeter of sand bags around the creature and then pumping out the water. The whole time, lapping waves flooded the enclosure, but the scientists used buckets and a pump to drain it countless times, Novas said.
It was only a matter of luck that nobody was electrocuted while using the electric hammer to remove the rock containing the fossils from the wet and rocky fort. [Image Gallery: Ancient Monsters of the Sea]
"Anyway, we are all alive," Novas said.
With the help of a donated bulldozer, they loaded the fossils into a donated truck and transported them north to Buenos Aires.
They're still excavating the fossils in the lab, but the researchers have already uncovered an intriguing fact: The plesiosaur has a long neck.
"North America is more familiar with the long-necked plesiosaurs, but down here we are more familiar with the short-necked plesiosaurs," that date to the Cretaceous period, Novas said. "This is one of the few cases where we discovered an exception to our southern standards."
Once they fully excavate the bones, the researchers plan to describe the new species and then compare its anatomy to other plesiosaurs, so they can create a family tree, called a phylogeny, for the reptiles. (Plesiosaurs are reptiles ─ the name means "near lizard" ─ but they are not dinosaurs.)
"I hope the preservation of the skeleton will let us better know the anatomy of these reptiles, and shed light on the phylogenic relationships of the southern plesiosaurs," Novas said.

In SpaceX's continuous effort to recycle rockets after launches, the Falcon 9 rocket launched to the International Space Station returned to Earth the next day but failed to survive its landing on a barge in the ocean. VPC
After its next launch, SpaceX hopes to fly a Falcon 9 booster back to a landing site on Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, making its first attempt to bring a booster down on land rather than on a platform in the ocean.
The Cape landing attempt has not yet been approved as part of a commercial launch license to be issued by the Federal Aviation Administration, and the timing of SpaceX's next launch – the company's first since a failed flight in June – remains uncertain.
SpaceX could try to launch of a group of small commercial communications satellites for New Jersey-based Orbcomm Inc. as soon as Dec. 15, but has not yet confirmed a date with the Air Force's 45th Space Wing.
NASA on Tuesday confirmed the "very exciting news" while updating media representatives on SpaceX's progress preparing Kennedy Space Center's historic pad 39A for launches of Falcon Heavy rockets and eventually astronauts, the latter possibly in 2017.
"Their plan is to try to land (the next booster) out here on the Cape-side," said Carol Scott of NASA's Commercial Crew Program, shortly after she discussed the plan with a SpaceX executive.
SpaceX declined to comment.

So-so forecast for Thursday launch from Cape Canaveral
SpaceX is trying to land and recover the first stages of Falcon 9 rockets so that they can be flown again, something company CEO Elon Musk believes is a critical breakthrough necessary to reduce launch costs.
SpaceX's next landing attempt will come weeks after Blue Origin, another private space firm started by a wealthy entrepreneur, Amazon.com CEO Jeff Bezos, successfully landed its New Shepard booster after a Nov. 23 launch in Texas.
New Shepard is a suborbital rocket that is considerably smaller and less powerful that SpaceX's Falcon 9, which lifts off with more than 1 million pounds of thrust to send payloads into orbit.
While congratulating Blue Origin on its success, Musk made a point on Twitter of noting that SpaceX's task was more difficult (an assertion Bezos disputed). Musk also suggested that a landing on land was in the works.
"Orbital water landing 2014," he said on Nov. 24, referring to Falcon 9 boosters that had "soft-landed" in the ocean last year. "Orbital land landing next."
SpaceX's water landings were followed early this year by two close but unsuccessful attempts to land Falcon 9 boosters on an ocean platform dubbed an "autonomous spaceport drone ship."
Both times the 14-story boosters hit the ship painted with SpaceX's signature "X" logo, but too hard or without enough control to remain upright on landing legs.
The company still believes it has shown that it can steer a booster from space back to the ground with precision, and that trying to land on an unstable target bobbing in the ocean has only added to the challenge.

SpaceX launches Dragon to ISS, but rocket landing fails
The water-based landings were always intended as practice leading up to boosters returning to land, where it would be easier and faster to recover them.
SpaceX has leased a designated landing site from the Air Force at the former Launch Complex 13, which the company has renamed "Landing Complex 1."
Concrete pads there already feature the "X" logo marking the landing spots, but construction of the landing complex may not be fully complete.
If SpaceX does recover its next Falcon 9 booster launched from pad 40, NASA said the company would immediately use it to help test the renovations at KSC's pad 39A in preparation for launches there as soon as next year and eventual crew launches. The rocket stage would be loaded on an erector system that will roll up the pad's on its side and then lift the stage vertical.
"We want to see that," Scott said of the tests. "That will be pretty cool."
SpaceX presumably would try to launch the Falcon 9 booster a second time after a period of inspections and refurbishment, but there is no timeline for doing so.
If SpaceX does not win approval or is not ready to land the booster back on the Space Coast during its next flight, several more launches could quickly present new opportunities if the rocket returns to flight successfully.
