New Post: The stunning deep sea footage scientists filmed in 2023 - https://lnkd.in/g27U-ery - Below 1,000 meters, the ocean is eternally dark.Sunlight can't penetrate these depths, but with robotic explorers, scientists can temporarily illuminate this black realm, revealing a deep sea world teeming with tentacled, glowing, and almost alien life.Here's some of the most intriguing deep sea footage captured by scientists in 2023. Expeditions to the deeps regularly return with either profoundly rare or unprecedented sightings. SEE ALSO: New giant squid footage shows they're not terrible monsters, after all "We always discover stuff when we go out into the deep sea. You're always finding things that you haven't seen before," Derek Sowers, an expedition lead for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Ocean Exploration mission, told Mashable last year.The deepest fish ever captured on filmIn a hostile realm of the ocean, where the pressure is over 830 times greater than on Earth's surface, scientists spotted a fish casually swimming around.It's a curious-looking snailfish, and at 27,349 feet (8,336 meters) down, it's the deepest fish ever observed. Researchers observed the critter on a deep sea expedition in the Izu-Ogasawara Trench, located south of Japan, after lowering a camera with bait down into the ocean's "hadal zone." This cryptic region is named for the Greek god of the underworld, and is home to the deepest of the seas. The record-breaking observation, announced in early April 2023, was made by scientists at the University of Western Australia and Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology. Tweet may have been deleted Even at such remote hadal depths, researchers noted that snailfish generally spotted in the region were a "large and somewhat lively population of fish."I asked Alan Jamieson, the chief scientist of this hadal expedition and founder of the Minderoo-UWA Deep Sea Research Centre, how he and his team reacted when they saw the record-breaking fish in the video. "In total admiration for how deep these little goofy fish can go," Jamieson said.Snailfish can resist extreme pressure, and have big mouths and stomachs to consume large prey — whenever it comes around.10,000 feet down, scientists find "enormous" octopus colonyIn the lightless deep sea, an octopus settlement thrives atop a tranquil volcano.Scientists at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute sent a deep ocean robot to an "octopus garden" located some 10,500 feet (3,200 meters) below the ocean's surface, in a dark marine region dubbed the "midnight zone." Here, the only natural light comes from glowing critters.The researchers captured high-resolution imagery, shown below, on a journey to the Davidson Seamount, located far off the California coast. They spotted a whopping 5,718 octopuses over a six-acre area, including 4,707 females nesting over their

WE HAVE BREAKING SNAIL NEWS! Scientists found a living population of the assumed extinct Big Black rocksnail! Scientists from the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science, the Army Corps of Engineers and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service teamed up to search for the snail after finding a shell during a mollusk study. After searching parts of the river, JACKPOT! They found a large group of living Big Black rocksnails in a privately owned and hard-to-reach part of the Big Black River in central Mississippi. Freshwater gastropods are among the most imperiled taxa in the world, but they are also among the least researched. More about this exciting news here: https://ow.ly/gEX950R9A9a Photo of Big Black rocksnails in the river, courtesy of Calvin Rezac/Mississippi Museum of Natural Science
