| | | | |The Deep Blue Sea |

| | | | | |

| | | | |When you consider the massive size and global influences of the oceans on our planet, you realize |

| | | | |that there is much to celebrate in June during Oceans Month. It is a commonly cited statistic that |

| | | | |71% |

| | | | |of Earth’s surface is ocean. It is less known that anywhere from 50–80% of all life on Earth is |

| | | | |found |

| | | | |under the ocean’s surface. After all, the ocean constitutes 99% of Earth’s living space and, |

| | | | |amazingly, humans have explored only 10% of |

| | | | |these vast depths. Some say that we know more |

| | | | |about the moon than these uncharted reaches. |

| | | | | |

| | | | |The majority of the ocean is the “deep sea,” |

| | | | |a cold, dark, and pressurized area 1,000 meters |

| | | | |below the surface. Light cannot penetrate to these depths, yet this part of the ocean is home to an|

| | | | |abundance of life. The fish and organisms that live |

| | | | |here depend on the organic matter that sinks down |

| | | | |from above, falling like a life-giving snow. Many deep- |

| | | | |sea fish are bioluminescent, which means that they |

| | | | |can create light with their bodies. Deep-sea fish |

| | | | |also conserve as much energy as possible and do |

| | | | |not move much, lying in wait for their food rather than hunting for it. The deep sea is a harsh |

| | | | |environment where only the most perfectly adapted organisms |

| | | | |can survive. Humans have only ventured to these reaches in advanced submarines. |

| | | | | |

| | | | |Yet it is not impossible to witness these amazing creatures up close. June is also Aquarium Month, |

| | | | |and aquariums have finally developed technologies that mimic deep-sea habitats. Scientists have |

| | | | |created the “abyss box,” a tank that mimics the punishing conditions of the deep sea: absence of |

| | | | |light, harsh cold, and crushing pressure the likes of carrying the weight of a jumbo jet. The tiny,|

| | | | |highly pressurized |

| | | | |tank has six-inch-thick walls, holds only five gallons |

| | | | |of water, and weighs 1,300 pounds. In it we can now |

| | | | |see deep-sea crabs and shrimp, angler fish, and |

| | | | |other mysterious creatures of the deep. |
