United States Center for Coastal and Ocean Mapping measured the depth of the Challenger Deep at 10,994 meters (36,070 feet) below sea level with an estimated vertical accuracy of ± 40 meters in 2010. If Mount Everest were placed at this location it would be covered by over one mile of water.

We need more people interested in sea exploration. I think we focus too much on outer space while we haven't even explored but 5% of the Ocean I believe. We have no clue about 1000's of creatures. There's SO MUCH left to explore. We might have the cure to cancer in some random fish we haven't discovered.
