    In the deepest chasms of the Indian Ocean, a mysterious new creature's been spotted, potentially for the first time.

    Diver Victor Vescovo was on a pioneering trip to the bottom of the Java Trench -- believed to be the deepest point in the Indian Ocean -- as part of the Five Deeps Expedition, that's being filmed for Discovery Channel.

    In the trench's murky depths, Vescovo and his team spotted what they think is a previously unseen species of jellyfish.

    They captured footage of the creature, which the team describes as an "extraordinary gelatinous animal" which "does not resemble anything seen before."
