A Quest for Creatures of the Deep Ocean
Imagine sitting in an armchair, locked in a clear plastic bubble, for a journey almost a kilometre down into the Pacific Ocean off California. A crane lowers you into the water. Then, cut loose from the cable, your sub sinks. Despite huge pressures, a galaxy of soft-bodied creatures are revealed in the sub's lamps, drifting about as if in outer space. Many light up to produce a dazzling 'living' firework display.
