Best Science image of the year ⁠ Floral coral. Researchers discovered a 3-kilometre coral reef at a depth of 30 metres off the coast of Tahiti, French Polynesia, during a global effort to map the sea bed. The reef is one of the largest to be discovered at this depth and contains giant, rose-shaped corals that are in pristine condition, according to the United Nations cultural organization UNESCO, which is leading the project.⁠ Equipped with his Alpha 1 @alexis.rosenfeld founder of @fondation.1ocean captured the unique shot that shows never-seen-before view of the coral reef. For this discovery and his contribution throughout the project, Alexis won the Best Science image 2022 from Nature magazine. Well done Alexis!⁠
