Scientists discovered 85 miles of deep-sea coral reef hidden off the US East Coast — here's what it looks like

    Scientists working with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) recently discovered a previously unknown coral reef off the US East Coast.
    The 85-mile-long deep-sea reef is located approximately 160 miles east of Charleston, South Carolina.
    Previous research pointed to the existence of the reef, but it had never been seen firsthand until last month.

The seafloor is one of the last unexplored regions of our watery planet.
