The goal of the deep-sea mission is to collect “baseline information” about what mysterious creatures lie within the uncharted territory.

 

During Saturday’s dive, the Okeanos Explorer team discovered a baffling purple egg-like object and posed the question to the internet: what do you think it is?

 

The team teased eager marine biologists on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram with the question, to which they received a multitude of guesses, including a Cephalopod egg, an Easter egg, Octopus egg, “some sort of sea tulip”, a shark egg, “the attack of the Pod People”, a nudibranch egg, “an odd mermaids purse”, but they have yet to put people out of their misery.
