Although humanity is striving to set foot on Mars, the Earth we are on still holds many unexplored places. Of course, these places the depths of our oceans consists.

The discoveries made so far have shown that some fish species even live at depths of up to 7000 meters. Recently, the record has also been broken for fish living at the deepest point. scientists, 8,336 meters deep He imagined a fish belonging to the Liparidae family.

Fish displayed at the deepest point:

The fish shown in the Izu-Ogasawara Trench in the Western Pacific Ocean belonged to the genus Pseudoliparis belyaevi. This fish species has previously been seen at a maximum depth of 7,703 meters. Kind, with new discovery The only fish species seen below 8000 meters depth was recorded as.

It was not easy at all to get this image:

The image we see above is the work of scientists at the University of Western Australia. The end product of 15 years of work it happened. The team lowered the bait we saw in the image into the ocean in September 2022. Underneath the bait were cameras that allowed us to see the image.

The team also dropped bait at 9,300 and 7,300 meters off the coast of Japan to discover fish that live in the deepest places.

What does a person feel at a depth of 8336 meters?

If you wanted to go to this depth of pitch darkness, you couldn’t even reach halfway. The maximum depth a person can descend so far, even with scuba equipment 332 meters was limited to. This record was set by Ahmed Gabr in the Red Sea in 2014.

The record freediving without the use of equipment was set in 2007 by Herbert Nitsch with 253 meters.

If you somehow manage to descend to a depth of 8336 meters, for example by teleporting to that point, 12136.39 psi You would be under pressure. That’s about 825 times the atmospheric pressure you’re exposed to when we go to the coast.
