About this listen

The riveting story of the history-making mission to reach the bottom of all five of the world’s oceans - the ultimate frontier of our planet.

Humankind has explored every continent on earth, climbed its tallest mountains, and gone into space. But the largest areas of our planet remain a mystery: the deep oceans. At over 36,000 feet deep, these areas closest to earth’s core have remained nearly impossible to reach - until now.

Technological innovations, engineering breakthroughs and the derring-do of a unique team of engineers and scientists, led by explorer Victor Vescovo, brought together an audacious global quest to dive to the deepest points of all five oceans for the first time in history.

Expedition Deep Ocean reveals the marvelous and other-worldly life found in the ocean’s five deepest trenches, including several new species that have posed as of yet unanswered questions about survival and migration between oceans. Then there are the newly discovered sea mounts that cause tsunamis when they are broken by shifting tectonic plates and jammed back into the earth’s crust, something that can now be studied to predict future disasters.

Filled with high drama, adventure and the thrill of discovery, Expedition Deep Ocean celebrates courage and ingenuity and reveals the majesty and importance of the deep ocean.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

If you're hoping this book delves into the science and discovery of these dives, then prepare to be disappointed. This is the story of the expedition behind the scenes, just about everything except details of the dives themselves. It was initially frustrating, but transpires to be a great story. Would recommend.

Not what I thought, but good

Why on earth ruin a pretty remarkable story by attempting (badly) to adopt the accent of each person in the story. Utterly bizarre idea. An American jumping between (I think) English, Scottish and French accents is like some kind of joke!

Shocking silly accents

Admire the effort it took for the dives to be completed but a poor performance with bad accents by the narrator and watch adverts rather than details during the deepest dive somewhat took the joy out of the listen

floored and flawed

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Really well paced, and it had facts and cool information aplenty. Heard how hard this challenge is to achieve, but interesting on how the feat was achieved !!!! Well read and great take on the story

Interesting, and informative

I really enjoyed this. It’s made me go and search YouTube for videos of this amazing undertaking.

Really entertaining and fascinating
