Četiri crna jajeta izronila su iz mračnog srca okeana, a u njima su se krila stvorenja koja izgledaju kao vanzemaljci
Među okeanografima i istraživačima morskih dubina često se kaže da mi ljudi bolje poznajemo površinu Marsa nego dno sopstvenih okeana. Mora i okeani prekrivaju više od 70 procenata Zemljine površine, ali su izuzetno teški za proučavanje, a ujedno i krajnje negostoljubivi za organizme koji nemaju škrge.
TL;DR
- Scientists found mysterious black objects at a depth of 6,200 meters in the Pacific Ocean.
- These objects were initially mistaken for eggs but were later identified as casings containing flatworms.
- The discovery represents a new species of flatworm from the phylum Platyhelminthes, found at unprecedented depths.
- This finding is significant as it sheds light on life in the abyssal zone, an area of the ocean with limited scientific understanding.
- The new species does not show significant developmental differences compared to its shallower-water relatives.
