Last week we have been doing a information report, we had a choice of what report we are doing like history. But I did the ocean, I chose the ocean because I liked it. It took me 1 week to finish this report because I wasn't here at Friday. But at least I finished it at home. I also have drawing of the two animals that I drew. Anyways I hope you enjoy and I hope you learnt something... Baboosh!

Mysteries Of The Deep...
Do you know lots about the ocean? Do you know what Mariana Trench is? Is it safe? What animals is there? Well if you want to find out come and join me in my ocean exploration! Our topic will be about the ocean but did you know that we only have discovered 5% of our oceans! Really awesome right?! Don’t believe me? Well look at this How much of the ocean have we discovered? But maybe some of you doesn’t like oceans. But wait! Before you go out and do what you want to do. I want to tell you about the ocean, because you might be interested to join me and explore the wonderful, mysterious, ancient and threatening Mariana Trench. “Ahh, my I’m out of breath…” (Joking) Anyways.
The Mariana Trench is the deepest part of the world’s oceans. It is 10,994 meters deep. It is located in the Western Pacific Ocean, an average of 200 kilometres (124 miles) to the east of the Mariana Islands, in the Western Pacific East of the Philippines. It is a crescent-shaped scar in the Earth's crust. So are you interested now? No!? “What do you mean no?” Fine how about this.. How about we learn about learn about the people that succeeded to go at the bottom of the Mariana Trench? Ok! Let’s go follow me…!
So it’s called Mariana Trench, and at the very bottom was the lowest point on Earth’s surface, “The Challenger Deep..” Its floor was seven terrifying miles down!
But I don’t actually know why it’s called Challenger Deep, but I have one that why it’s called that way. Maybe it’s called Challenger Deep because it will be very challenging to get there because it’s very deep. That’s my fact, maybe you awesome divers have any fact about why it’s called Challenger Deep.
Are you still diving with me? If you are, we have lots to dive through like sharks! “Nah, I was just kidding…” I’m pretty sure you don’t want to dive /through sharks…
In 1989, James Cameron had an enjoyment imagining what might be at the bottom of a similar canyon when he made “The Abyss..” Which imagined quite a lot at the bottom of an unnamed Caribbean Trench. Then in February and March, he descended to the bottom of both New Britain and Mariana Trenches, lights and 3-D Hi-Def cameras were blazing, in a slender, lime green sub called the Deepsea Challenger.. He also dropped several autonomous landers built on similar design.
Are you enjoying about what I have said so far about the Mariana Trench and the Challenger deep? “Cool!” Because I have some more..!
But of course he wasn't the first spectator.. A different looking sub was invented, “The Bathyscaphe Trieste.” It was invented in 1960, but the Bathyscaphe Trieste was unable to observe much, and for whatever reason, little seemed to reach the public about what has been found since. Back in February, all footage of the Challenger dives and landers are being withheld by National Geographic until their can release their own 3-D feature film. Perfectly understandable, considering they helped bankroll the huge operation. The result, though, is that after all these visits to Challenger Deep, the view of the bottom remains largely and frustratingly shrouded to the rest of us. He went a little bit further than James Cameron too.
But there is still lots of more information about it, but i’m not going to say all of it to you. Because it would take very long, but here is a link if you want to actually know all about the Challenger Deep and the Mariana Trench. More Information. But we are going to skip at the people that successfully got to Mariana Trench. So now we are going to the animals that lives in the Mariana Trench….
Now i’m probably wondering that you are thinking of krakens or other insane animals. But sadly there ain't no krakens at the Challenger Deep. But there will be a lot of cute or creepy alien looking animals in this report.
It’s an octopus that is very cute. It got it’s name from the elephant named dumbo… It’s called a Dumbo Octopus because it has ears like the elephant Dumbo. But this adorable animals has some special features, it has wiggly eyes and a pleasant puckered mouth. But that only adds to it’s cartoonish looks.
This may look dainty, but it’s actually strong enough to make it the deepest living octopus
Known to science..
It actually choose to make it’s home all the way down between 9,800 and 13,000 feet, or
2,987 and 3,926 meters.
2. “The Deep Sea DragonFish” If the Dumbo Octopus is the least harmless looking animal.
Well this Dragonfish is the opposite. With it’s oversized teeth and his hideous face, the dragon fish is an assassin of the incomprehensible deep. Although this fish has no scales but it has very slippery, slimy skin that resembles an eel’s body…
The Dragonfish about 6 inches or 15 centimeters long, it prefers to swim between 700 and 6,000 feet, or 213 and 1,828 meters. Under the surface. So the Dumbo Octopus swims more deeper that this creature. But this Dragonfish likes to be in the cold and lightless water. But I actually thought that the water there should be hot because it is closer to the Earth’s core. But they said it is cold, and some said it was warm with a little bit of coldness…
3. Now let’s go to my favorite one, the “Goblin Shark” If you have ever seen any scary alien movies, this creepy alien looking shark might ruin your day. Goblin sharks have a protruding snout that looks like a pointy sword. Just below the snout are a set of protruding jaws that appear to be mismatched for the shark’s face.
If you can’t see some of the pictures just reload the page and hopefully it will work. But there are tons more of facts about this mysterious, ancient Mariana Trench. But I will let you explore the other things that I didn't say in this report. But I hope you enjoy! Peace Out...
