DIE ON THIS HILL

Deep ocean exploration is worth the deadly risk

This hill is unclaimed. Nobody is willing to die on it. Yet. First blood pending.

  • Pay, and you hold it.
  • Anyone can dethrone you for more.
  • Every claim stays on the record.

No claims on the record.

The other side

Crewed submersibles exist because in the 1960s no camera or manipulator could work at eleven kilometres without a pilot aboard. That constraint is gone. Remote vehicles now hold station in current and sample vents for weeks, and a hull failure at that pressure kills instantly with no rescue possible. The science arrives either way. The funeral is optional.
