Mimicking fish to create the ideal deep-sea submersible

More than 80% of the Earth's ocean has yet to be mapped. This is due, in part, to the challenges associated with deep-sea exploration, including intense pressure, zero visibility and extremely cold temperatures. As financial and scientific interest in the ocean and its resources increases, researchers are leveraging the adapted features of living fish to create more efficient and practical deep-sea submersibles.
