three friends agreed to give it one last search mission.Da: Netop som de skulle til at vende om, skete det.En: Just as they were about to turn back, it happened.Da: Pludselig begyndte koralerne at

they were safe.Da: Mikkel var udmattet men også opfyldt af en dyb glæde.En: Mikkel was exhausted but also filled with a deep joy.Da: Han havde fanget det sjældne øjeblik, som både ville hjælpe hans forskning og skabe bevidsthed om behovet for at beskytte havet.En: He had captured the rare moment that would both aid his research and raise awareness of the need to protect the ocean.Da: Da de sejlede tilbage mod kysten, var Mikkel fyldt med en ny form for beslutsomhed.En: As they sailed back towards the coast, Mikkel was filled with a new kind of determination.Da: Han vidste nu, hvor hastende hans mission var.En: He now knew how urgent his mission was.Da: Havet havde delt en af sine hemmeligheder med ham, og han var mere dedikeret end nogensinde til at sikre, at det ville forblive en levende undren for de kommende generationer.En: The sea had shared one of its secrets with him, and he was more dedicated than ever to ensuring it would remain a living wonder for future
