bathyscaphe

A bathyscaphe is a deep-sea submersible designed to explore the ocean's depths. Unlike regular submarines, bathyscaphes are built specifically to withstand immense pressure found in deep waters. They typically consist of a strong outer hull and an inner compartment for passengers and equipment. One famous example is the Trieste, which reached the Challenger Deep, the deepest part of the Mariana Trench. Bathyscaphes enable researchers to study marine environments, collect samples, and gather data, contributing significantly to our understanding of ocean science and deep-sea ecosystems.
