This amazing footage from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration highlights some of the creatures recently discovered in deep sea dives near Puerto Rico.

Scientists from around the world are able to log into a chat room to discuss the videos coming from 12 deep sea expeditions. More from QZ.com:

The scientists, who are supported by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and used NOAA’s Okeanos ship for the expedition, found several creatures so new to us, they don’t even have names. In a total of twelve dives, they saw 100 species of fish, 50 species of deepwater corals and hundreds of other invertebrates, many of which had never been seen in their natural habitat. They’re still analyzing the data they collected, but have already identified two new species: a jellyfish-like animal called a ctenophore and a new type of fish.
