The newly discovered coral is a mega organism measuring 32 meters long and 34 meters wide, believed to be around 300 years old, showcasing the resilience of marine life.
Researchers are hopeful about this discovery as it represents a large healthy coral oasis in slightly deeper waters, serving as a beacon of hope amidst climate change.
Unlike typical coral reefs, this is a standalone coral structure made up of a network of polyps, which has grown uninterrupted for centuries.
Despite its immense size and vibrant colors, the coral resembles a giant rock beneath the surface, illustrating the wonders and hidden complexities of ocean life.
