Dr. Copley explained to the BBC, “On these dives, we watched the everyday lives of Antarctic deep-sea animals, helping us to understand them much better than studying specimens collected by nets or trawls from ships,” Dr. Copley continued, “And [it’s] helping us to investigate how our own lives are connected to this remote yet fragile environment.”
