Ever wondered what the deep sea looks like, 200 metres or more below the surface? Join us to find out!
Chris Yesson and Emmeline Broad are currently taking part in a Eurofleets funded expedition, BENCHMARK, exploring the seabed of the Denmark strait (located between the east coast of Greenland and the west coast of Iceland), on board of RV G.O. Sars.
They are also using the ROV ÆGIR 6000 with high-definition cameras to film and map this remote marine environment, revealing important habitats and incredible species of cold-water coral, sponges and much more.
Join them as they live-stream video footage from the ROV and reveal some of the weird and wonderful sea creatures that call this extreme environment home here.
Questions and comments for Chris and Emme, are welcome, during the stream, which will run from 12.30pm BST for an hour or so.
