A little afternoon pick-me-up: A dense community of deep-sea corals and sponges seen while exploring a site dubbed "Tropic of Cancer" seamount within the Pacific's Musicians Seamounts group, at a depth of ~1,900 meters (6,230 feet). #Okeanos#coralpic.twitter.com/TPxt60nv2u

Extraterrestre? Non, cette espèce intéressante appelée Cystisoma a été trouvée près du transect de Louisbourg, à bord du #NGCCHudson! pic.twitter.com/i2KWAQCsNr
The barreleye fish has ultra-sensitive eyes that can rotate within its transparent head, able to look up while the body faces down. pic.twitter.com/psmuLwzQbA
