A team of scientists recently made a remarkable discovery off the New England coast when they spotted a gray whale swimming in the Atlantic Ocean. The scientists, part of the New England Aquarium, were conducting an aerial survey 30 miles south of Nantucket in Massachusetts when they encountered the unusual sight.
Upon seeing the whale, the researchers were initially hesitant to believe what they were witnessing, as the presence of a gray whale in the Atlantic had not been documented for over two centuries. After capturing images of the whale from above, the team returned to the aquarium to analyze the photos, confirming that it was indeed a gray whale.
