Transcript:Woman: Did you read that article on deep ocean exploration in the science magazine last week? Man: I skimmed it. Is it the one about the new submersible? Woman: Yes! They descended to over 10,000 metres and found entirely new species. Bioluminescent creatures that have never been documented before. Man: That's extraordinary, really. Though I'm not sure the average person appreciates how little we actually know about the deep ocean. Woman: Exactly! More of the moon's surface has been mapped than our own ocean floor.
