ok psa NOAA is literally livestreaming deep sea exploration footage from one of their submersibles!!! like right now!!! you can watch them discover parts of the ocean that NOBODY HAS EVER SEEN

an eel!!!!!!!!!!!

“he has no right swimming that fast in this cold of water. i don’t know what this guy is up to, but it’s rude” – an actual scientist on the NOAA okeanos exploration

ok they’re not streaming rn but they should be later this afternoon!!

they’re in the water again right now/currently descending (as of 3:30 PM CST/4:30 PM EST)

“oh, mm. those are not the right coordinates. i almost sent us into the cliff :)” i love NOAA scientists

they’re at the bottom!! octocoral

glass sponge with “a crinoid hat, [churlish giggle]” according to the scientists

cusk eel! 

bonus: “i like corals better, they don’t run away from us”

they cannot decide which rock to pick for sampling this is absurd

a beautiful blue shrimp!!

“i can’t call it bob, i’ll call it bob and then scott will tell me it’s a female again”

“what is he doing to this poor coral? he’s tipped it over and he’s eating it, the darn guy!!”

oh dear I love NOAA so much, bless them

I loved the Marvelous Rock

and how Scott didn’t want to stop eating his zucchini to declare whether or not he wanted a sample of that black coral
