MessageToEagle.com – A mysterious unidentified purple blob has been discovered underwater by scientists from the Ocean Exploration Trust on the research vessel E/V Nautilus.
Marine biologists noticed this glowing creature that is only a few inches across on the ocean floor off the coast of Southern California and it could be a new life-form!
One researcher speculates that it is a new type of tunicate, also known as a sea squirt. Other options include some type of sea slug or cnidarian, the group which includes jellyfish and coral.
“I’m stumped, I have no idea—I couldn’t even hazard a guess,” one researcher says in the video.

The team used a vacuum system to slurp up the creature. Once aboard the ship, it began to unfold into two distinct lobes and looked like it could be a new species of nudibranch. Known for their brilliant hues, nudibranchs are a type of sea slug that inhabit a range of environments.
It could possibly take years for scientists to definitively determine whether it’s a newly discovered species!
