things like this are in the ocean


now imagine what's going to be in fucking SPACE

at least the ones in space are really far away from us

Disclaimer, I care about marine life more than I care about anything else, for real. Except this big dumb idiot. And it's not like an ~ironic~ thing, I mean it IS hilarious to me and they ARE THE BIGGEST JOKE PLAYED ON EARTH but I seriously f***ing hate them.
THE MOLA MOLA FISH (OR OCEAN SUNFISH)
They are the world's largest boney fish, weighing up to 5,000 pounds. And since they have very little girth, that just makes them these absolutely giant f***ing dinner plates that God must have accidentally dropped while washing dishes one day and shrugged his shoulders at because no one could have imagined this would happen. AND WITH NO PURPOSE. EVERY POUND OF THAT IS A WASTED POUND AND EVERY FOOT OF IT (10 FT BY 14 FT) IS WASTED SPACE.
They are so completely useless that scientists even debate about how they move. They have little control other than some minor wiggling. Some say they must just push water out of their mouths for direction (?????). They COULD use their back fin EXCEPT GUESS WHAT IT DOESNT f***ING GROW. It just continually folds in on itself, so the freaking cells are being made, this piece of floating garbage just doesn't put them where they need to f***ing go.
So they don't have swim bladders. You know, the one thing that every fish has to make sure it doesn't just sink to the bottom of the ocean when they stop moving and can stay the right side up. This creature. That can barely move to begin with. Can never stop its continuous tour of idiocy across the ocean or it'll f***ing sink. EXCEPT. EXCEPT. When they get stuck on top of the water! Which happens frequently! Because without the whole swim bladder thing, if the ocean pushes over THE THINNEST BUT LARGEST MOST TOPPLE-ABLE FISH ON THE PLANET, s*** outta luck! There is no creature on this earth that needs a swim bladder more than this spit in the face of nature, AND YET. Some scientists have speculated that when they do that, they are absorbing energy from the sun because no one f***ing knows how they manage to get any real energy to begin with. So they need the sun I guess. But good news, when they end up stuck like that, it gives birds a chance to land on their goddamn island of a body and eat the bugs and parasites out of its skin because it's basically a slowly migrating cesspool. Pros and cons.

Interesting... What could differential pressure do that would make inverting your eyes be an improvement? I wonder what it could do to other species if that's the case.

maybe they're like crocodiles and they haven't evolve much

Crocodiles haven't evolved much? But they're so powerful.

Thats the point, they've been around since dinosaurs and they haven't evolve since then. Thats implies they don't need to evolve further , but who knows, maybe they will

I bet there're ultrasharks down there

Sea monkeys like they showed in the old comic books, they play sea baseball and drive sea cars and just have fun.

Fun fact -- The largest animal to have ever existed on Earth STILL exists today. Adults have a heart the size of a car.

if that video is referring to the bloop, i think they found it wasnt an animal but seismic plates

No, they still don't know what the Bloop was, and they know it was made by a living animal.

it sounds like a whale farted

Would any of you use a vessel like James Cameron to explore the deep ocean?

I'm wondering what that would taste like battered and deep fried

it eats mostly shellfish and tastes like lobster as a result. only the tail is edible.

Im still convinced dog men and Bigfoot are chilling in the forests lol. At least ocean creatures stay there.
---

Alls I know is we won't totally explore it until we can figure out how to do it cheaply. That's pretty much true about why people don't achieve most things.
---

because much of it is unexplored, the number of species that exist is much larger, possibly over two million.

Where does this number comes from and what it's supposed to mean? The way I see it, the could potentially be one unique species for every liter of unexplored water. But on the other hand, that still falls into "over two million." And on the third hand, a total of three undiscovered species falls into "possibly over two million."

So this statement actually means "there are *shrugs* species."

And speaking of things with three hands, maybe there's one of those down there.

The Ocean equally terrifies and fascinates me.

They were probably weaker in the dinosaur days.

Nah, back then there were crocs that could run full speed on land and chase down dinos.

How can you know that for a fact? People used to think the world was flat and that the sun revolved around the earth too

As fascinating as the idea of space is.
I've always said that maybe scientists should figure out the oceans first before wetting themselves over space. Finish exploring what's here.
