In 2019, we celebrated 10 years of ocean exploration data on NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer. Thanks to telepresence technology, scientists are able to add their expertise to missions on NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer no matter where in the world the ship, or the scientists, are located. This means that, over the course of the 10 years that the NOAA Office of Ocean Exploration and Research has led expeditions on the ship, a lot of scientists have been able to participate! In this video, some of these scientists share their views on how the model of exploration on the Okeanos has impacted them, expanding basic understanding of the deep ocean and opening opportunities to explorers around the world.
Here's to another 10 years of exploring!

Check out some of the very interesting undersea creatures observed during the second dive at Titov Seamount of the Discovering the Deep: Exploring Remote Pacific Marine Protected Areas expedition, which started at the base of a steep, sedimented slope at ~ 1,200 meters (3,940 feet) depth.
