No announcement yet.
Any of you find outer space extremely weird and surreal?

There is no pressure on the moon, or space in general. The pressure on ocean floors will crush you. Humans live in space stations because the pressure is like zero. Humans can’t live in the bottom of the ocean due to the extreme pressure.
With that said, in 2019, a manned mission went almost 36,000 feet into the Mariana Trench. That is a record. In the expedition as a whole, with 5 teams, they traveled over 45,000 miles and mapped a huge chunk of the ocean floors. They also recorded over 500 hours of footage, including never before seen sea creatures. All 5 teams explored the ocean floors.

It's funny that we claim to know so much about space but haven't explored most of our own planet. ( Ocean, Amazon, etc)

I love that channel. I have been subbed to that channel for years now. It’s great. My wife is in nursing school, I showed her the immune system videos that he has and now she loves it too. I always catch her watching it. It also helps her with some courses.-Kev- likes this.

We do not know how deep space is.
So right off the bat, the "we know more about space than our own oceans" is plain wrong. We do not know how deep space can go, or if it's finite or infinite. Scientists only have theories. Not physical evidence. We have physical evidence of ocean floors. In 500 hours of footage.
Yes, a couple of decades ago, we had not explored over 90% of our oceans.
But today, we are at over 80%. The number will keep going down.
The issue is the pressure of the deep oceans.
"One of the biggest challenges of ocean exploration comes down to physics. Dr. Gene Carl Feldman, an oceanographer at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, explains that the ocean, at great depths, is characterized by zero visibility, extremely cold temperatures, and crushing amounts of pressure."
Lastly, while we still need to explore 80% of our oceans, where do you think we are at in outer space? The percentage is probably not even worth trying to type because it will be 0.00...followed by a bunch of zero's that no one has the time or energy to type out.
As far as what we have seen with our very best and biggest telescopes, the furthest we can see: That is only 4% of the observable universe. And that is only 4% of the observable universe. Not 4% of what their could be. Just 4% of what we think is there.

Put it like this:
Imagine you have no recollection of living on Earth, or what Earth has in it. You are blindfolded and taken into a 3-floor mansion (Earth), alone, no other humans or pets. The mansion is secluded in a forest. You are placed in a bathroom with one window which you can also look out of, we do not know which floor, standing at a bathroom door of that mansion, looking outside of the bathroom to the rest of the house. You can't go any further than right there on the doorstep of your bathroom, or look any further than whatever your eyes can see out of the window, which is just a big forest. This is where you were placed. So, you look around, peek around from where you stand. You can see parts of the Mansion. Maybe a bedroom? Maybe you see a hallway? You see other doors that may lead to other rooms. So, right there, you have observed maybe parts of the mansion right? Depending on how big the mansion is or which bathroom you are using out of your 3-5 bathrooms. You can also look outside and see all green, lots of trees, but no signs of other life. Although in the very far distance, you can maybe see what looks like other abandoned mansions. That is what you have seen based on what is observable to you with your restrictions and limitations.
You have not and can not explore the rest of the forest because you are restricted.
You have not even seen what goes beyond the forest and the other abandoned mansions, which you were hoping had life in them, but a closer look by your robot shows they are burnt down, left to rot, missing parts of roofs, and inhabitable at their current state.
So now, you are given a new way to observe. You are given a remote controlled robot with a camera attached to it. Now you can explore that floor you are in the mansion, all from the comfort of the bathroom. Your robot camera footage is returned to you in your smartphone. Now you can see some more parts of the mansion. Then you get a more advanced robot, and you can see parts of the forest. Not too far because your robot also has limitations. You now see what you feared, that the other mansions are abandoned and no lives there.
And still, that robot can't even go to deeper into the forest, let alone outside of the forest to see the neighborhood, cars, civilization, woods, animals, oceans, rivers, buildings, traffic lights, grocery stores etc. Your robot also ran out of battery/fuel/energy and can't even take any more pictures to send back to you. But the last pictures were of some of these other abandoned mansions that are closest to the mansion you're in.
You now get binoculars. Some pretty advanced one's, they can see pretty far, past the abandoned mansions. You can see other homes, very faintly. It's very hard to make them out. Especially since you are limited to looking from your bathroom window.
That is how much space we have observed.Kris Silver likes this.

Post the footage then. There's footage of us on the moon then there should be footage of us reaching the deepest part of the ocean.
We send unmanned probes into space, we can send unmanned probes down to the deepest depths, no ?
Probably the ocean floor along with lifeforms with no need for eyes.
