The deep sea is a place of cold, dark, and high-pressure conditions. In the bathypelagic zone (1,000-4,000 meters), no natural light from above the surface reaches these depths, and the ...

Further down, between 3,300 feet and 13,100 feet, is the Bathypelagic zone or Bathyal zone. This area is about 39 degrees Fahrenheit, and the pressure is over 110 times what it is at sea level.

Over 600 people have traveled to space, but only 22 brave souls have ventured to the enigmatic depths of the ocean floor.

This range is known as the Bathypelagic Zone or midnight zone. According to the NOAA, the temperature there remains constant ... Water pressure can climb over 5,850 pounds per square inch.

Now, they’ve finally uncovered its secret: it belongs to a previously unknown group of animals, never before seen in the deep sea. Deep down, two kilometers (or 1,2 miles) below the surface ...

They likely adapted larger jaws, smaller eyes, and more compressed body shapes to survive in the ocean’s harsh bathypelagic zone–3,300 to 13,000 feet below the ocean’s surface.
