On March 16, 2020, researchers aboard the Schmidt Ocean Institute's ship Falkor stumbled upon a beautiful *giant* Apolemia, a type of siphonophore, in the Indian Ocean off western Australia. The scientists are not sure of the exact length of the silly string-like creature, which was found in the Ningaloo Canyons at a depth of 2,070 feet (631 meters). However, based on the measurement of its outer ring by a laser-equipped drone, they estimate it was 150 feet (46 meters) long.

mushroom695년 이하awesome- nico25년 이하This is fascinating, as a jellyfish lover. These are so cool! I want to know more about them. Hopefully they become better known.
- love_the_ocean5년 이하I love Jellyfish I love all fish, I love every animal in the ocean. And don't worry, I'll spread the word!
- tigerzeye4년 이상These are not jellyfish, or fish. Mainly known as the Giant Siphonophore, (the silly string looking one) the Potuguese Man O War is a Siphonophore as well, the most interesting one in my opinion, is also the most terrifying, i couldnt find the name but its stingers (i think stingers) are at its face and then it just once again starts to look like silly string.

happypig2020약 5년It's interesting that it's never been spotted before and it's the longest animal recorded in history. That's cool!
