Shell ocean discovery xprize
The "Shell Ocean Discovery XPRIZE" is a $7Million purse to research the ocean floors. We must create a vehicle that takes a bathymetric scan of the ocean floor and take remote chemical analysis without human intervention.
THE FACTS
70% OF EARTH'S SURFACE IS COVERED IN WATER
only 5% of the ocean has been explored
we know more about the surface of mars than we do our ocean floor
