Over 80% of the world's oceans remain unexplored, highlighting the vast mystery of our planet's marine environments[2][4][6]. Despite advancements in exploration technology, the challenges of deep-sea exploration, such as immense pressure and limited visibility, make it difficult to study these depths thoroughly.
Some estimates suggest that only about 5% of the ocean floor has been explored and less than 10% mapped using modern sonar technology[3][5]. In contrast, we have explored more of Mars and the Moon than we have of our own ocean[4]. This gap in exploration poses significant challenges for marine conservation efforts globally.
