Es la primera vez en más de 40 años que se obtienen ejemplares vivos. El hallazgo coincide con datos geofísicos que señalaban posibles escapes de metano en la zona.

For the first time ever, a #ColossalSquid has been filmed alive in its deep-sea habitat — a translucent juvenile just 30cm long, recorded 600m deep in the South Atlantic. 🦑🌊
🎥 Thanks to #SchmidtOcean Institute for this remarkable footage.

I hope our lure attracts squi...
THUNK!
#ProjectESCA works! Squid like the lure and a 360 camera means nowhere to hide.
Likely a glacial or clubhook #squid, this is 200m in #Antarctica

Gorgeous big Antarctic octo with @deepseapod.com narrating the #SchmidtOcean divestream. Megaleledone is the biggest octo in the region and this one may have been brooding! Stayed firmly put while they carefully sampled nearby.
Megaleledone setebos maybe! What a big beautiful octopus. #SchmidtOcean dive 777 #AntarcticClimateConnections #MarineLife
Yellow tiny delicate yellow branching coral sample hekd by a manipulator.
A bushier yellow delicate coral sample.
White branching coral in the sediment
Zoom on top of a white branching coral where another white round animal is attached.
Some corals from earlier. #SchmidtOcean dive 777 #AntarcticClimateConnections #MarineLife
Red brittle star next to a sea cucumber that has the base attached to the rock and little branchy tentacles sticking out of the other end.
Same sea cucumber, but with the tentacles pulled in.
A skate lying on the sediment.
White fuzzy cattail looking animal.
This psolus was collected. Plus we saw this skate and corn dog tunicate! #SchmidtOcean dive 777 #AntarcticClimateConnections #MarineLife
Another octo! Grimpoteuthis? #SchmidtOcean dive 777 #AntarcticClimateConnections #MarineLife
Tiny little octopus. #SchmidtOcean dive 777 #AntarcticClimateConnections #MarineLife
Large white bumpy textured sponge lying on its side..
Round pink disc shaped anemone sitting on the sediment.
Sea pen with several large polyps with long feathery tentacles on a long stick like stalk.
Soft coral with 3 or 4 large polyps sitting in the sediment.
Sponge, anemone, umbellula, & anthomastus (or heteropolypus?). #SchmidtOcean dive 777 #AntarcticClimateConnections #MarineLife
A animal with over a dozen arms that resemble sparce feathers extended down touching the seafloor.
Football shaped white animal with a small opening on one end and on one side.
Pink chubby sea star with many small wrinkly arms.
Crinoid, tunicate, and a lumpy sea star. #SchmidtOcean dive 777 #AntarcticClimateConnections #MarineLife

White branching Christmas tree shaped coral with a white round animal perched on the tippy top.
Close up of several crinoids, some with arms open, other curled inward.
Coral with a little critter on top & a bunch of crinoids. #SchmidtOcean dive 776 #AntarcticClimateConnections #MarineLife
Well, that wasn't supposed to happen. They were just going for a tiny isopod. That's what we call a bonus sample! #SchmidtOcean dive 776 #AntarcticClimateConnections #MarineLife
Beautiful zoom on a soft coral. #SchmidtOcean dive 776 #AntarcticClimateConnections #MarineLife
Fish vs tiny isopod vs slurp. #SchmidtOcean dive 776 #AntarcticClimateConnections #MarineLife
Hydroid? Idk, but i like it. #SchmidtOcean dive 776 #AntarcticClimateConnections #MarineLife
Slurp. Smooth scotoplanes collection. #SchmidtOcean dive 776 #AntarcticClimateConnections #MarineLife
Half dozen fuzzy feathery stars perched atop a small rock.
A dark red urchin with long white thick spines climbing up a rock.
White feathery coral (primnoid maybe) on a small rock with a small pink ophiuroid at the base.
In the deep sea, whenever there are rocks, the animals tend to flock to them so they can get up off the icky seafloor, like here with these ophiuroids, urchin, & corals. #SchmidtOcean dive 776 #AntarcticClimateConnections #MarineLife
Light colored brittle star with long spindly arms.
That ophiuroid was cos-playing as a pycnogonid. #SchmidtOcean dive 776 #AntarcticClimateConnections #MarineLife
White vase shaped sponge next time a smaller sponge that's literally shaped like boob's. I seriously couldn't think of a better description. Sorry!
Vase like sponge with feathery stars sticking off the side.
Small round lumpy sponge and some feathery crinoids.
Large pink anemone closed up making it look like a balloon.
Some more sponges, crinoids,& a huge closed anemone. #SchmidtOcean dive 775 #BellingshausenSea #MarineLife
Large pink sea star with dark tips on all 5 of its arms.
Check out the size of this sea star @echinoblog.bsky.social ! Easily 20cm across. Hopefully they'll see more when we can get a better look. #SchmidtOcean dive 775 #BellingshausenSea #MarineLife
A white barrel shaped sponge on sediment.
Nice sized sponge just sitting down here all alone. Listening them dive while avoiding ice is fascinating. #SchmidtOcean dive 775 #BellingshausenSea #MarineLife
