Deep-sea vehicles spot 'alien' sharks deep beneath the waves in the Pacific (science.org)

There are loads of unknown (to science) deep sea sharks out there, most of them quite small. A friend of mine in grad school spent several trips on a deep sea trawler out of Madagascar and described multiple new species.

Could the light be blinding all the animals? I would assume their eyes would have evolved to be extremely sensitive to light.

> the animal leisurely glid along the sea floor

Strange. I thought it was glided, or at least glode

Oh fuck, we're gonna kill them too now aren't we

me before opening: is this just going to be goblin sharks

the article: Goblin sharks have never before been filmed in their natural habitat

Surprisingly bad headline.

It took me longer to get past the "human verification" than to read the entire article. Odd state of the world.

This kind of posts make me think. We all love technology because it's so cool, but how cool is nature already? Making our lives awesome is as much about protecting and discovering the sources for our inspiration, as building the stuff we are inspired to build.

Very interesting. It's always fascinating how much we still don't know about this marble.

The BGM of the video is so stunning and "alien", who knows it name plz?
