But only recently has technology made it possible for scientists to explore the deep ocean and begin to understand its vital importance for our planet and for our lives.
This means the “deep” is the part of our ocean that is dark, cold, food-poor, subject to intense pressure, and typically deeper than 200 meters. Despite these extreme conditions, life has found a way to thrive even at great ocean depths, and with each new mission to explore the deep, we make new discoveries that increase our understanding ...
