ROV pilots filmed this glass squid while exploring the Colorado-Rawson submarine canyon off the coast of Argentina. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. The marine biologists of the Schmidt Ocean Institute are a busy bunch. Over the last few years, scientists aboard the research vessel have spotted rare Antarctic squid, discovered multiple octopus near Costa Rica, and even cataloged over 100 potential new species off the coast of Chile. To kick off 2026, the Institute released a trove of new images and videos highlighting some of their latest observations from the south Atlantic Ocean.
