A video from the NOAA's Okeanos Explorer mission shows a swimming holothurian, also known as a sea cucumber, off the coast of Hawaii.
The brief scene was captured near Maro Reef on August 6th, 2015.
In the video, the majestic creature floats about through a water column. Back and forth it folds, moving in a motion of grace and wonder.
The aquatic animal's insides are visible through its outer-body.
Our mesmerizing time with the holothurian is brief, however, as it quickly rises into view and then briskly falls back out.
