What about the Bermuda triangle? That remains the biggest unsolved mystery of the oceans in my opinion. That said,keep 'em coming @Explorers. Nice one,sir. |

Thayay: There are indigenous tribes living in the Amazon forest, and desert dwellers in Sahara desert. In fact, Sahara desert has been crossroads of international/continental trades for thousands of years, so there are well worn trade routes and rest points for those who know the place very well. Now , try Antarctica. That's the most brutal place on earth. 4 Likes |

Unseen: James Cameron Dives to Bottom of the Pacific In 1997 James Cameron famously sent the RMS Titanic to the ocean floor. Now he has made an even deeper trip himself: in a submersible called the Deepsea Challenger, he descended to the bottom of the Mariana Trench -- seven miles beneath the western Pacific Ocean, deeper than Mt. Everest is high. And he lived to tell about it. Today, on a conference call to reporters from the research vessel Mermaid Sapphire, he enthused about the mystery and adventure of being all alone in the darkness, 35,576 feet beneath the surface of the sea. "I just sat there looking out the window, looking at this barren, desolate lunar plain, appreciating," Cameron said. Click Here for Pictures: James Cameron's Dive "There had to be a moment where I just stopped, and took it in, and said, 'This is where I am. I'm at the bottom of the ocean, the deepest place on Earth. What does that mean?'" Cameron, with backing from the National Geographic Society, spent about three hours in a barren spot called Challenger Deep, south of the island of Guam, the deepest-known part of any ocean in the world. He shot video, some in 3-D, and tried to take samples of life forms and rocks, but his sub's robot arm failed because of what National Geographic said was a hydraulic fluid leak. In the perpetual darkness, Cameron conceded there was not much to see. The temperature outside the Deepsea Challenger was around 36 degrees Fahrenheit, and the pressure outside his protective diving chamber was several thousand pounds per square inch. "It was bleak," he said. "It looked like the moon." "I didn't see a fish," he said. "I didn't find anything that looked alive to me, other than a few amphipods in the water." Amphipods are shrimplike creatures sometimes found in the deep ocean. Cameron -- whose films "Avatar" and "Titanic" were the biggest blockbusters in movie history -- now holds a record for the deepest solo dive ever made. Two other men, Navy Capt. Don Walsh and Swiss engineer Jacques Piccard, dove together to the bottom of the Mariana Trench in 1960, but spent only 20 minutes on the sea floor before returning. They said at the time that their sub kicked up so much muck that there was almost nothing visible through their thick viewing ports. No one has been back between then and Cameron's dive; some scientists said the risk and expense were not worth the reward. Cameron, who is wealthy enough to go on such adventures, said he hoped to start a new chapter in deep-sea exploration. "To me, the story is in the people in their quest and curiosity and their attempt to understand," Cameron said. hope this help 3 Likes |

@teamsynergy I agree but my fascination is with what lies at bottom of the whirlpool(know what I team). I don't think anyone has been able to get down there and see how that place really is and I would like to see that otherwise,what those scientists are trying to do is incomplete. |

I wouldn't be surprised if some of these places are where mankind's deities are hibernating, removed from man's relentless advance to occupy the world and the destruction that comes in its wake. There are definitely unseen species and classes of life as old as the earth in some of these places. 2 Likes |

Explorers:If every Nigerian is like you... Maybe we would be in a better place.... I mean, I understand you do these researches just because you can or want, I stand to be corrected though, and I have seen situations where people call you names and stuff, trying to prove you wrong. What strikes me is the manner in which you respond. This is a perfect example, you trying to enlighten someone and he is demanding a picture like he is paying you for it and I expect you to ignore, instead you give him a link. wow.... Explorers you are the man of the year. I owe you that award. Anytime wey I blow, I go DHL am give you. 5 Likes |
