'''Deep ocean''' also called deep-sea, refers to the nearly unreachable depths of the worlds oceans the exceed 1000 fathoms (1828 meters). Due to advances in technology, [[mankind]] is finally able to explore uncharted areas of the sea. Previous attempts at surpassing this depth were foiled due to the complete absence of light and the high water pressure achieved at this depth. Furthermore, the [[thermocline]] could damage equipment in the vehicle. | '''Deep ocean''' also called deep-sea, refers to the nearly unreachable depths of the worlds oceans the exceed 1000 fathoms (1828 meters).
