Summary:

Meso, the underwater explorer robot, is journeying deep into the mysteriou ocean twilight zone. What strange and wonderful creatures are there to be found, down deep where the weird things are? Where the Weird Things Are is inspired by the Mesobot project, a collaborative effort of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI), Stanford University, and the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley. Mesobot uses cameras and lights to noninvasively follow ocean animals that inhabit the ocean's depths, enabling biologists to study their behavior over extended periods for the first time ever!
