Did You Know…

More than 80% of the ocean is still unexplored and unmapped!

Despite covering over 70% of our planet’s surface, the ocean remains one of the most mysterious frontiers. In fact, we know more about the surface of Mars and the Moon than we do about the deep-sea environments on Earth. This means there could be thousands of undiscovered species and natural wonders lying in the dark depths of our oceans, waiting to be found.
