omg can you even imagine being at that depth?? 8k meters is insane
like literally the pressure would be crushing
and they just chill there with their tiny eyes
and translucent bodies
I mean, it's not every day we get to see creatures thriving in environments that would kill us in seconds
. And the fact that these snailfish have no swim bladder is wild
like, how do they even stay afloat?
anyway, funding constraints are super annoying
especially when you're on the verge of making history
and can't finish the job due to budget issues
we need more people to support ocean exploration research
