Scientists have discovered a strange, alien-like deep-sea creature in the Pacific Ocean and nicknamed it “Darkness.” This translucent, predatory amphipod was found thousands of meters beneath the ocean's surface in one of the most extreme and pitch-black environments on Earth. Although it looks otherworldly, it is a natural part of Earth’s ecosystem and plays a role in breaking down organic matter in the deep sea. The nickname “Darkness” reflects the extreme depths and eerie habitat where it was found, not a formal scientific name.
