Despite human exploration, there's one place that is still full of mystery—the ocean floor.

Summary

KEY POINTS:
  1. Most of the ocean's depths have never been seen by human eyes.
  2. As of mid-2023, only about a quarter of the seafloor has been properly mapped.
  3. The Seabed 2030 initiative aims to have a complete map of the ocean's floor by 2030.
