NOAA Ocean Exploration, Seascape Alaska
- Marine researchers found a mysterious golden orb deep on the Alaskan seafloor.
- The team joked it was like something out of a horror movie because it's so puzzling.
- A remotely operated vehicle picked up the egg-like object, which scientists will now test.
Earth's oceans are vast and mysterious, and scientists have yet to describe roughly 91% of its species. It's not entirely surprising, then, that deep-sea explorers just found something entirely new during an Alaskan expedition.
