Giant squid, long the stuff of legend, finally appeared on video thanks to a new approach that attracted rather than scared deep-sea creatures. Using a silent, red-lit camera and a glowing lure mimicking a jellyfish's alarm, scientists captured six encounters, stunning the world with breathtaking footage of a creature as tall as a two-story house. With only about five percent of the ocean explored, countless remarkable species and potential discoveries still await in the deep. Yet, ocean exploration receives just a fraction of the investment given to space, despite its vital role in supporting life on Earth.
