Now That's Deep...And CLOSE!

Ever wonder what we mean when we talk about the "deep" ocean? For us, "deep" is greater than 200 meters (656 feet), which is the depth at which sunlight begins to dwindle. But the absence of sun does not equate to the absence of life...
This giant grenadier (Albatrossia pectoralis) was seen (UP CLOSE!!) during the Seascape Alaska 5 expedition, while exploring off the north coast of Kodiak, Alaska, at a depth of 4,250 meters (2.6 miles). Now that's deep!
