The length is five times greater than the length of the Grand Canyon. According to the www.livescience.com website The Mariana Trench was created by a process that occurs in a subduction zone where two parts of oceanic crust collide (subduction is a process when one tectonic plate collides with another and submerges under it slowly sinking…

The Mariana Trench In the Pacific Ocean, there is an underworld that has been rarely explored and contains the deepest point in the world’s oceans. It is the Mariana Trench. The exploration of the remote Mariana Trench by only a few people offers insight on what it entails to get there, what has been discovered, and the importance of this discovery in the ocean. The Mariana Trench which is also known as the Marianas Trench is a crescent-shaped trench located in the western Pacific Ocean to the…

chamber before a confused Trespasser. “Use my Taka and transport yourself to The Sage’s Retreat.Use my Taka to fight him. I am Deva, the older brother of Asura.” Deva hands all his Taka to The Trespasser creating a blue like an aura around him with tall blue hair emerging and yellow eyes.The Trespassers mind travels across time to The Sage’s Retreat. “Go through all of this to stop me? You don’t know why I did this.” yelled The Sage through the chapel-like space. “Why did you do this?Why did…

But after he died they started to appreciate what he did to further search of the ocean. At the University of Edinburgh after he died they named one of their new laboratories that they made in his name (Sir John Murray-the Founder of Modern Oceanography). Prior to his and Thompson’s searches of the ocean very little was know about it and its great depths. But up until now scientists have made discoveries that they never thought possible such as exploring the Mariana Trench to see if any life was…

The darkest depths of the world's five oceans are among the most mysterious regions on Earth. Indeed, humankind knows very little about these dark, yet rich, ecosystems, as more than a staggering ninety percent of the oceans remain unexplored. This unfamiliarity generates a range of human emotions, from fear, to revulsion, to fascination, which has informed human conceptualizations of the ocean depths for centuries. The prominent Epic of Beowulf, written as early as the eleventh century, offers…

considered, almost everyone was labeled but, there was this one girl that was always tormented by everyone else. Mariana was the victim of countless verbal and physical bullying from nearly every student in the 8th grade on the grounds that she was a new student to the school and happened to be a Jehovah’s Witness. After several months passed on, it was widely known and frequently discussed that Mariana “the new student” would cut herself and inflict other forms of pain on herself. But one…

The ocean covers a large portion of this earth and it inhabits some of the weirdest and largest ranging size of life forms. Some of these cannot even be compared to the large monstrous occupants in the ocean 244 million years ago. One of those animals was the Thalattoarchon saurophagis, which scaled up to at least 28 feet long and could be compared to a bus. This creature was considered in the group of ichthyosaur which was a group of reptiles that dominated the seas while the dinosaurs were…

It was Tuesday, March 29, 2016 when Alex Marcotte thought it would be a normal day at work. Instead, he would never get to be seen by his daughters, wife, or family members again. This is all due to the trench collapsation of the Aqua Ohio Excavation company in the city of Mentor, Ohio, which left three little girls without a father. Before the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) was created in 1973, there were numerous counts of workers killed while working in trenches. The…

Do you ever wonder why things turn out the way they do: why the colors of the leaves change when the season turns from summer to fall, or why someone can be treated so awfully, yet still continue to love that person with all their heart ? “The sense of wonder speaks of our hunger to be moved, to be engaged and impassioned with the world and take pleasure in it, attuned to it and fascinated by it” (7 Ways to Spark Your Sense of Wonder). It is Ted Kooser, an American poet and a Pulitzer Prize…

of deadly chemical weapon. It was April 21st, 1915, so far we didn’t know what to call this war. It was enormous, and affected most of the world. Poor Belgium wasn’t even a part of the force, but Germany tried to attack France by going through her. “How is it looking?” I turned towards Lucas one of the troops that was watching the German army. “They haven’t done anything yet. I think they might try to retreat.” Lucas looked back down into the trench at me. I nodded in response, and headed…
