octopus are great... so far from humans in the evolution tree and yet so smart.

The discovery of these new octopus species contributes to our understanding of the diversity and evolution of cephalopods. It also highlights the importance of ongoing research and exploration to uncover the hidden wonders of the marine environment.

I can’t understand why all these billionaires keep funding rockets instead of lidar equipped submarines<p>Explore Earth before exploring outside Earth
