摘要:Complete darkness surrounds us as we slowly descend towards the ocean
floor. The numbers on the instrument panels of our submarine, JAGO, change
rapidly: the depth increases to 160 metres, the temperature cools to 4 degrees
Celsius. Suddenly a mysterious world unfolds in the beam of our headlights.
White and pinkish mounds of coral grow side by side, building reefs as large
as football fields. The colourful formations are a hub of activity. As we peer out
of our port hole, fish, crabs and tiny shrimp pass by.
