When you dive past 200 meters (656 feet), you enter the deep seabed—an expansive world leading down to abyssal plains, at depths of 3,000 to 6,000 meters (up to 19,685 feet). But it doesn’t stop there; the Mariana Trench drops to a staggering 11,000 meters (36,089 feet). These areas, isolated in darkness and high pressure, hold unique life and key insights into Earth’s geological and biological evolution.
6.8350379 miles! Mount Everest is 5.4984 miles tall! The Mariana Trench is effen deep! What’s taller than Mount Everest? Mauna Loa! It’s a volcano in Hawaii. It rises approximately 13,680 feet (4,170 meters) above sea level, but when measured from its base on the ocean floor, its total height reaches around 56,000 feet (17,000 meters) making it significantly taller than Mount Everest from base to peak. That’s 10.606061 miles in total height! Blowing away Mount Everest, literally! Get it? Blowing away since it’s a volcano 🌋!
