Bro' that snail is OP! The #scalyfootsnail dominates the board in the award-winning #Endeavor: #DeepSea. We catch up with the games creators @wellycon_nz to talk about how the #deepocean and #research are represented in their boardgame. Check it out in our latest episode.

A whole life grumpy and spiky. The fangtooth Anoplogaster cornuta is a #deepsea icon but have you ever seen a baby? 1st from Andrew's eel expedition. 2nd image CSIRO specimen.

An amazing mug appears in the fish room! A tribute to our very own Andrew from the legendary @stickfigurefish.bsky.social Andrew ordered some fishy mugs and a mysterious 3rd mug was in the box! Check out our latest #podcast #episode to hear Andrew sharing is love of #anglerfish

This week's highlight was this beautiful lass. A Himantolophus. Doll-like eyes and an elaborate fishing lure (the esca). It came with a note for Andrew. He's an obsessive. If you don't believe me, check out the latest @deepseapod.com episode all about #deepsea #anglerfish

Last week's processing was all about the ghost #sharks (#chimera). These are from fisheries bycatch. Love these ancient prototypes that are still rocking it in the deep sea. Their snouts are stitched with a variety of sensors that allow them to detect buried prey.

Oh lordy, here he comes!🎣🐟 For our latest #podcast episode on the #deepsea #anglerfish, who better to talk to than some of their biggest fans. James Mclaine and our very own Andrew Stewart are gushing about these #deepocean specialists. Listen here: www.deepseapod.com/episodes/069

New episode! We had Dr. Alan Jamieson from the @deepseapod.com on to talk about exploring the deep sea and how it is alarmingly close to what the first astronauts and cosmonauts went through. Also a lot of fun chatting on the different engineering behind spacecraft and submersibles.

#wellycon #boardgame con is on this weekend and I caught up with the creators of #EndevourDeepSea for @deepseapod.com. For the cons special edition card they wanted to showcase New Zealand marine science and ended up using our expedition. ...where do I put this on the impact reporting?

#ComingSoon, a whole #deepsea #podcast episode on #games Jose, developer of subROV, talks with us about working with #scientists to make his marine exploration #sim as accurate as possible. Even better, the game is currently in the #Steam ocean #sale. store.steampowered.com/app/1648760/...

This #batfish was the highlight of today's processing.

Never a dull moment at #TePapa! Today I met THE #tortoise #torty from our #galipoli exhibition. Not planned, I just bumped into her! This place is something else.

In the latest episode we talk with a #deepsea legend Nigel Merritt. He shares a career that spans whaling, months on a vessel with no common language, and pioneering methods that have shaped how we understand the #deepocean. Find it in #podcast places. www.deepseapod.com/episodes/67

Lovely gift left on my desk. Meet Tulip

Thank you #FijiSci for helping me keep count.

Last night I was down a rabbit hole of why fish can't exist deeper than around 8000 meters and I realized that the deepest a fish has ever gone in the ocean and survived was in a submersible. The fish were people. All vertebrates are fish. I hope this helps with ~~the horrors~~

The ocean is too deep for fish.

The day before heading out to #Antarctica to look for the #colossalsquid with our low-light/far-red camera, I caught the #IronLungMovie and loved it. Now I'm in an inhospitable environment looking for monsters in an ocean of blood 😐. #ProjectESCA #ironlung #deepsea

The shapes of #PancakeIce are really satisfying. They remind me of jellyfish, giant waterlilies and some sort of paper sculpture. #Antarctica #RossSea

Eerily peaceful moments at 3am off Ross Island. #antarctica is a magical place of extremes. @autsquidsquad.bsky.social

A new record for #projectESCA, down to 700 m deep from a Zodiac using a pot-hauler and a battery. This project is the embodiment of #number8wire. @pure-ocean.bsky.social @autsquidsquad.bsky.social #Antarctic #Antarctica #RossSea

After an epic weekend of rounding up the final gear for #ProjectESCA season 2, @thomaslinley.com and I join Aurora Expeditions' MV Douglas Mawson today to start our next Antarctic squidchasing adventure!

#ProjectESCA has arrived in Dunedin to make final preparations before we sail out for Antarctica on Monday to go squidchasing. @thomaslinley.com and I are hoping this is a good omen...

T -5 days to the next voyage! Want to know the story of #ProjectESCA? @thomaslinley.com and I chatted about how we got here on the @deepseapod.com in honor of the colossal squid's 100th birthday www.deepseapod.com/episodes/056...

Welcome to #ProjectESCA season 2! A week from tomorrow, @thomaslinley.com of the @deepseapod.com & I sail for Antarctica for 5 weeks with Aurora Expeditions, with our deep-sea camera system and a few new toys as well. With a little luck, we'll have some exciting to stories to share; stay tuned!

We covered Cookie Cutter Sharks a few years ago on our show. Amazing creatures! Very cool to see this little guy. Still a #NoThanks to going for a swim with one. strangebynaturepodcast.podbean.com/e/cookie-cut...

Too many cookies over Christmas? Why not use a smaller #cookiecuttershark to cut back? Adorable little horror.

#anglerfish are so gross and scary! Oh really, have you seen the babies? They look like a furious peeled grape! #deepsea
