Riesige Formation in Australien: Meer aus Rochen: Taucher filmt Unterwasser-Spektakel
In New South Wales filmt ein Freitaucher eine riesige Rochenformation, die unter ihm entlangschwimmt. Die Tiere bewegen sich nahezu synchron an dem Mann vorbei, der das Spektakel dreißig Meter unter dem Meeresspiegel gebannt verfolgt.

This report in Nature on the costs of competing for & administering scientific grants is shocking: "In other words, European taxpayers will have spent more on the funding process than on the funding itself, and the scientific ecosystem has been drained."

Point of no returns: researchers are crossing a threshold in the fight for funding
With so little money to go round, the costs of competing for grants can exceed what the grants are worth. When that happens, nobody wins.
