Above is a video segment from Physicist Garrett Lisi’s E8 theory paper, An Exceptionally Simple Theory Of Everything.

Check out his appearance @ TED waaaay back in February 2008.

This year’s record 16 named-storm paths. Thanks to NOAA for the image.

This video was sent to us by a friend who works as a commercial oil rig diver in the Gulf of Mexico. He tells us that it was filmed at 7828 feet deep in the Mississippi Canyon trench on another project that his company is working on. I’m assuming that it was filmed with an unmanned submersible or remote camera. The creature appears to be a type of squid that has evolved incredibly long tentacles that hang downward, jellyfish-style. 8,000 feet deep is a seriously extreme environment, probably low in oxygen, zero light, and little water movement. It is incredible just how much we don’t know about the alien creatures that live at such depths. We’ll do out best to try to contact some cephalopod experts to see if we can get a positive ID…
