Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution’s (HROV) Mesobot is back for our third iteration of the Ocean Exploration Cooperative Institute (OECI) technology collaboration! Mesobot is one of three key pieces of ocean exploration technology hosted by E/V Nautilus on the NA155 expedition, and it returns this season with new systems upgrading its collaborative exploration power.
Mesobot’s brand-new cameras have captured exciting biodiversity from the ocean’s twilight zone, including luminescent siphonophores and salps, squid, swordfish and even an oceanic whitetip shark!
Working with partners like OET, URI and UNH through the NOAA Ocean Exploration Cooperative Institute, weʻre bringing the best strengths of multiple vehicles together - mapping the ocean floor, monitoring water column migrations, directing robots like Mesobot to explore and make observations more precisely than ever before.

E/V Nautilus is exploring unknown regions of the ocean seeking out new discoveries in biology, geology, and archaeology. Join us 24/7 for live video from the seafloor and to ask questions of our explorers currently aboard Nautilus: www.nautiluslive.org.

i've seen pictures of the ocean depths and its inhabitants, but getting a glimpse of it in video format is astonishing !!!! we can see how dynamic and full of activity this place feels, also the observations will probably help to shed some light (pun intended) into the understudied organisms on this habitat. congratulations to all the people working on this project !!

And watching the3 Live EVNautilus stream is astounding. Us non-scientists can occasionally share in seeing a new creature never seen/recorded before. Well worth having the Live screen open when working on the other screen. (and you can post live questions and comments to the stream too)

2:02 Amazing when you realize how large some of the creatures actually are. The shark and sword fish give a size comparison. The few anglerfish are at least the size of a dessert plate!

Beautiful!! It paints a picture of the deep sea more like a sky of stars rather than a pitch black space. I love the deep sea exploration and natural sciences, and never pictured the Twilight zone so lively! I always kind of pictured it like a barren, sunlight ridden place. So cool :)

Utterly beautiful. The expression "a sea of stars" gets a whole new meaning! Most people know about shallow waters, the coastal zone and coral reefs. Some even concern themselves with the benthos deep down. But this video highlights the wonders and beauties of the great gap between the two! Thanks for making this available!

Do these videos show typical densities or are these super concentrated? It would also be great if there was some way to show the approximate size.

Can't figure out if the long glowing things are either fish, siphonoiphores, or something else entirely. Any ideas?

@WireMosasaur 8 ай бұрын

many different things, but mostly salp chains! (unless you mean the actively wiggly white things, which look like polychaete worms maybe??)
