  It's a figure that's almost unfathomable! Dan Smith shows just how little we've explored of Earth's deep oceans. 🌊

A recent study published in the journal Nature Communications has revealed that only about 0.001% of the deep seafloor has been imaged, highlighting the vast unexplored regions of our oceans. The research, conducted by a team from the University of Hawaii at Manoa, utilized data from various sources, including satellite altimetry and ship-based sonar, to estimate the extent of seafloor mapping. The findings underscore the need for increased exploration and mapping efforts to better understand deep-sea ecosystems, geological processes, and potential resources. The study also emphasizes the importance of international collaboration to enhance our knowledge of the ocean's depths, which remain one of the least understood environments on Earth.
