Oceanographers have recently discovered a strange squid in the depths of the ocean in the Hawaiian Islands. These animals appear to glow in the dark water.
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association scientists spent the summer investigating and recording the waters near and in two marine national monuments in Hohonu Moana, Hawaii. The location is one of the areas where there are many mysterious ecosystems, such as quoted by Time on September 6, 2015.
