Grimpoteuthis or Dumbo Octopus  

As far as we know, the Dumbo Octopus resides the deepest in our seas than any other octopus at depths up to 4,000 m (or 13,100 ft) deep! It gets its name from the Disney character Dumbo due to its ear-like fins used to propel it through the water. There are few large predators in the deep sea, so these octopuses don’t have an ink sac!

Saturn’s Rings

Possible variations in chemical composition from one part of Saturn’s ring system to another are visible in Voyager 2 and other pictures as subtle color variations that can be recorded with special computer-processing techniques. These highly enhanced color views were assembled from clear, orange and ultraviolet frames from a distance of 8.9 million kilometers (5.5 million miles)I.

 In addition to the previously known blue color of the C-ring and the Cassini Division, the bottom picture shows additional color differences between the inner B-ring and and outer region (where the spokes form) and between these and the A-ring.
