Dive with the pioneers of deep-sea research on their journeys of discovery, on the most famous submersibles in history, to come face-to-face with the fascinating creatures that survive where no life was ever expected. Glimpse rarely seen marine organisms: bioluminescent frogfish, jellyfish, vampire squid, viperfish, pelican eels, and the mysterious fangtooth — all perfectly adapted to the extreme pressures and temperatures of their alien environment.
In addition to teaching about marine biology and ocean exploration, Into the Deep documents submersible exploration, and describes the basic physical principles that allow humans to venture safely into these otherworldly landscapes.
The show presents the evolution of deep-sea diving vessels used to explore the ocean environment, from the 1930 bathyscape mission by William Beebe and Otis Barton, to Robert Ballard's journey to the RMS Titanic. Experience the dive of Trieste to the Challenger Deep, the lowest point in the South Pacific.
Embark on an exciting, engaging and engrossing exploration of Earth's oceans.
