Behavior of microbial dissimilatory reduction in the process of bioleaching metal oxide was researched to increase the leaching efficiency of marine manganese nodules.
Our idea is to connect the sea surface and the deep sea vertically, and that way we believe that we can utilise the capability of the deep sea and that's the purpose of this whole project.
Why not fight the climate crisis on every front or keep lit the flame of exploration in the darkest depths of the sea and the furthest reaches of space time?
People have been able to build orbiting stations in space but we don't yet have the ability to build a station that can withstand the crushing pressures of the deep ocean.
We don't have a technology to build a research station that can withstand deep ocean pressures, and even if we did, it will reportedly cost more to do that than to put one on the moon.
