\"Sinking<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cDeep. Dangerous. Determined.\u201d And now we all have a chance to go along. Today DEEPSEA CHALLENGE 3D<\/strong> opens\u2014-the film in which James Cameron dives to the bottom of the Mariana Trench, the deepest known part of Earth’s oceans.<\/p>\n

“I’ve seen some pretty astonishing things in the depths,” says James Cameron of his dives to the bottom of the sea. \u201cThis quest was not driven by the need to set records, but by the same force that drives all science and exploration\u2026 curiosity. So little is known about these deep places that I knew I would see things no human has ever seen.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Cross-section<\/a><\/p>\n

The deepsea rift lies below the western Pacific Ocean, just east of the Mariana Islands and about 200 miles from Guam. Very deep (2550 km, or almost 7 miles) but also very narrow (69 km,or 43 miles) and very cold (1 to 4\u00a0\u00b0C, just above freezing). The geologic\u00a0cross-section of the Trench<\/a> depicts its main structures and features.<\/p>\n

And here\u2019s a sneak peek at the upcoming suspense and adventure of Cameron\u2019s voyage to the bottom of the sea.<\/p>\n
