Forget open water sharks. Some of the most interesting sharks on Earth live near the ocean's floor.
The deep sea is a magnificently mysterious place.
When discovered, TJBH was believed to be only 30 meters deep. However, in reality, it is deeper than the deepest blue holes on Earth.
The activity is questioned for the unknown environmental impact it could have on the ocean.
The area could be at risk in the future and should be protected.
This is a turning point for a gargantuan industry, but the environmental damage could be catastrophic.
The expedition also collected a number of other deep-sea animals that may be new to science.
We've just started discovering the tip of the iceberg in terms of deep sea creatures.
A fish has no face.
For all we know about other planets and even other galaxies, there's still much to learn about our very own planet - especially its oceans. The oceans are teeming with life of which we know nothing or very little about; now, Florida researchers have discovered a new species of angler fish that dwells 1 km below sea level (3200 ft).
Exploration Vessel (E/V) Nautilus is a 64-meter research vessel currently operated by dr. Robert Ballard, the discovered of Titanic’s shipwreck. Now, Hercules’ camera spotted an extremely elusive deep sea creature — a siphonophore. The siphonophore an order of the Hydrozoa, a class of marine animals belonging to the phylum Cnidaria, which also includes jellyfish. Although a […]
For the first time, researchers have taken a look at the life that thrives in one of the deepest spots in the ocean. They investigated the New Hebrides trench, located just West of Vanuatu, and revealed that cusk eels and crustaceans teem more than 7,000m (23,000ft) down. They used cameras fitted on an unmanned lander […]
Many deep sea animals, such as the infamous anglerfish, use parts of their bodies as decoys, to attract unsuspecting prey. Now, researchers have found that a certain squid can do this as well – its tentacle tips flap and flutter as if swimming on their own. Biologists believe that the mesmerizing movement of the tentacles […]
