Brian D. Greene is one of the rare scientist explorers who continues to push the boundaries of rebreather diving to investigate the rather unknown twilight zone of coral reefs. In this brief video, filmed by Greene at Motu Nui, Rapa Nui, off the coast of Easter Island in January 2025, we get an exceptional look at three endemic rarities: the Easter Island Butterflyfish (Chaetodon litus), the Easter Damselfish (Chrysiptera rapanui), and the Blackear or Easter Island Angelfish (Centropyge hotumatua). This is a gorgeous trio of fish we can experience only through the efforts of Greene; we offer our thanks for making this video available for everyone’s enjoyment!
