Meet the hydrothermal worm, a rather obscure microorganism that lurks in thermal vents deep (really deep) in the ocean.
It’s a recent discovery and its scientific name is still unknown.
Taken at a magnification of 69x with a width of 4.32 μm with a Quanta SEM, the shot was taken using a similar process. It was also taken by Philippe Crassous.
Hydrothermal worms are deep sea creatures, almost as small as bacteria, and are largely found near hydrothermal vents in the ocean. It's not something you're likely to ever see, unless you're a deep sea marine biologist.
