Publisher's Summary

The riveting story of the history-making mission to reach the bottom of all five of the world’s oceans - the ultimate frontier of our planet.

Humankind has explored every continent on earth, climbed its tallest mountains, and gone into space. But the largest areas of our planet remain a mystery: the deep oceans. At over 36,000 feet deep, these areas closest to earth’s core have remained nearly impossible to reach - until now.

Technological innovations, engineering breakthroughs and the derring-do of a unique team of engineers and scientists, led by explorer Victor Vescovo, brought together an audacious global quest to dive to the deepest points of all five oceans for the first time in history.

Expedition Deep Ocean reveals the marvelous and other-worldly life found in the ocean’s five deepest trenches, including several new species that have posed as of yet unanswered questions about survival and migration between oceans. Then there are the newly discovered sea mounts that cause tsunamis when they are broken by shifting tectonic plates and jammed back into the earth’s crust, something that can now be studied to predict future disasters.

Filled with high drama, adventure and the thrill of discovery, Expedition Deep Ocean celebrates courage and ingenuity and reveals the majesty and importance of the deep ocean.

Not what I wanted but still loved it.

Went into this title wanting to hear about the science involved with the bottom of the ocean. what I got was a title about the legal and mechanical hurdles it takes to get a sub down there and get it back. there was some talk about the science on the deep but it's mostly about the process of getting there. that being said how it all transpired and what it took was quite fascinating. if you're interested in the deep ocean you will probably still enjoy this title. but don't go into it thinking it's going to be solely about what's down there and more about how to get there.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
