It seems we can 't get on the planet last enough. Two thirds of NAS As money is spent on manned space exploration,and that number will grow with the USA’s decision to send a man to Mars in 2037. We've seen all there is to see on Earth,right? Wrong. The final place is here,under the surface of the sea.
Heading down into the ocean,human limits are quickly reached. At 200 metres,the water is as black as a moonless night. Most nuclear submariries (核潜艇) woutb implode (内爆) before they reach 1 km down. At 3 km — still less than the average depth of the ocean — there's a good chance that you’ 11 discover a new species. The deepest-diving whales go no further. At the very bottom,about 11 km down,lies the Challenger Deep,the deepest part of the Mariana Trench in the Pacific Ocean. Eighteen humans have walked on the Moon,but only three have seen the Deep with their own eyes.
Yet things live down there. Big things. A very loud sound was once heard and scientists suggested that it was produced by an animal bigger than a blue whale,the largest creature known on the planet.
In the late 1990s,a deep-water submarine vas dropped in the Southern Ocean,and passing 1,000 metres,it discovered something huge assing under it. Surprised? Don't be. The ocean :overs 70% of the planet's surface and we’ve itudied less than 5% of it. We know more about he dark side of the Moon than about the bottom the sea.
One reason that we explore space is to find evidence of other life forms. The search for life outside of Earth is important,but robots can look inder the dry rocks of Mars better than humans,rhey’ re absolutely important for doing ocean esearch too,but they can't look under the sea. rhe cost of exploration is rising,but the results kvould benefit all our lives. Understanding the ceans will help us find new sources of food,drugs and energy.
Perhaps now it's time to begin a new period df sea exploration. Manned exploration of space is fiction(科幻小说)Theadventure of the ieep sea is science fact.
