Over seven dives in the Guaymas Basin of the Gulf of California, we explored a deeply diverse array of hydrothermal vent ecosystems with Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.

[@croatiansensation6062]

I love your scientific banter and awesome humor. Keep up the great work exploring the deep depths and the oceans of mystery out there. Sending you love and support from Long Beach, CA. :O)

God dammit now I *REALLY* want to see what's in the oceans of Enceladus. I swear I refuse to die until we get there and see it.

[@LateNightHacks]

I would gladly sign up for a one way trip to just do that

[@marthaanderson2656]

Absolutely agree. These expeditions are serving as a template for remote robotic visits to Enceladus

[@Paulus_Brent]

Yeah... and by the way take a look at the ocean of Europa!

Would be really interesting to know how these plate-like structures form (time 1:24).

[@kendrickkelly2336]

Question: I seem to remember a possible issue with the ROV's lights possibly damaging/blinding deep sea creatures. Discuss.

[@LateNightHacks]

not really, most things react to pain by avoiding it. and stuff stuck to the floor rarely have a use for eyes

[@Lucanoptek]

This is beautiful
