We have mapped the surface of the Moon at a resolution of 328 feet. We have mapped the surface of Mars. Yet, here on Earth, 95 percent of the deep seas remain a mystery to us. Put another way, that’s two thirds of the entire solid surface of the planet. The health of the oceans is critical to our species’ survival, because of its role in climate change, as a source of food, and as a potential source of energy.
