Mariana was the queen of King Philip IV of Spain. The Pacific islands were named after him. In the sixteenth century they were Spanish colonies.

 

These islands in the western part of the North Pacific Ocean are actually the peaks of some submerged sleeping volcanoes. The world's deepest oceanic range extends 200 km east of the islands.


200 km east of the archipelago is the profound ocean in the world. At 2550 km lingering & 69 km wide, this maritime area is named after the nearby islands.



As a result, the name of the Queen of Spain has become associated with the identity of the deepest sector ‘Mariana Trench’.To show its deepness, it is said that if Mount Everest could be placed in it, there would be an extra space of about 2 km or 1.6 meters.

 The deepest sector in the world, larger in size than the maximum peak in the world. Temperatures hover around near the end of the Mariana Islands. The pressure of the water column in this part is also much higher than normal.


The extent of this pressure per square inch is about 6 tons. This measurement is about a thousand times higher than the normal atmospheric pressure at sea level. The pressure of this water column increases with the depth in the Mariana sector.

According to geologists, when two tectonic plates collide inside the Earth, one layer penetrates beneath the other, creating a deep oceanic channel like the Mariana Trench.

In 185 AD, the British ship HMS Challenger measured the depth of the Mariana Trench for the first time. Later, the deepest sector in the world has been studied many times. Information about its depth has changed at different times.


 

That day, numerous climbers have set foot on the summit of Mount Everest. But only a small number of querist have been able to reach the depths of the Mariana Trench.

 

Bathyscape is a submarine. It has a lot in common with submarines. The pair traveled to the deepest point in the world with the help of Swiss and Italian technology bathescape 'Trieste'.

After landing for five hours, Picard and Walsh were able to reach their destination. But the Challenger was able to stay in the deep point of the deep for only twenty minutes. They were able to disembark to 10-917 meters.


 

The explorers could not take any pictures of their journey or reaching the profound point. Because their journey was surrounded by the Cloud of Silt. But where did the profound ocean clouds come from?


 


In fact, these clouds are not the sum of water vapor fragment in the sky. This is a mixture  of sand, clay and other materials. Which is continuously  accumulated in the flow of water in the profound part of the ocean. That part of the frozen sand-clay is narrated as a cloud.

Picard frequently claims he saw a flatfish in the deep sector. But most scientists could not accord with his claim.


 

 

According to them, no animal can survive under the pressure of the water column. Because calcium will liquefy as a result of stress. When calcium is dissolved, bone formation is also impossible.

 

But nature has repeatedly proved scientists wrong. Researchers & oceanographers trust that many parts of the Mariana Islands, with the Challenger profound, are waiting for the outer world in entire darkness.

US is now responsible for the maintenance of most of the Mariana Trench. With their permission, research can be done in this geographical wonder of the world.

 

In the comparatively shallow part of the Mariana Trench, marine creatures such as amphibians and holothurians exist. But scientists are sure that many more wonders of zoology are waiting in the pitch darkness of the Mariana sector.

Knowing the mystery of how animals survive in extreme environments will open many closed doors to biomedicine and biotechnology.

 

Scientists further cerebrate that the dark future of the Mariana Tent could shed light on the secret of life on Earth. However, this profound point was not spared from pollution. Plastic was also put here!
