What would happen if you dove into the Mariana Trench? Explore the intense conditions of the deep ocean and discover rare footage from Earth's deepest point. Reaching the Mariana Trench is harder than landing on the Moon. Fewer people have visited Earth's deepest point than have walked on the lunar surface.

What would happen if Antarctica’s ice suddenly melted, the oceans drained, or Yellowstone erupted tomorrow? Explore hypothetical Earth transformations, from a water-covered planet to a world without humans. Discover how long traces of humanity might survive after we vanished, what a second moon could mean for Earth, and what might happen if Earth became a moon of Saturn. Plus, explore the hypothetical question: what if Earth were flat? Enjoying these science explorations?

How deep does the ocean go? Explore the Mariana Trench, home to Earth’s deepest known point, and discover how its depths compare with Mount Everest. If Mount Everest were placed in the Mariana Trench, more than 2 km of water would still cover its peak. In a hypothetical ocean without water, a fall to the trench’s bottom would take roughly 3.5 minutes. The ocean covers about 71% of Earth’s surface, yet much of its seabed remains unexplored. Discover the extreme pressure, strange life, and vast depths beneath the waves.

War, environmental destruction, global warming, species extinction... Spaceship Earth is being trashed by its crew. It seems humanity needs a Plan B. Fast. And the obvious candidate? Mars is staring down at us every night. Mars has a total surface area almost equal to Earth's entire land area, offering plenty of room. With large sums of money directed to space exploration, it's not so far-fetched to ask: What if we moved all 8 billion humans to Mars? Ever wondered what would actually happen?
