Default IS There anything lurking in the depths of The Pacific or Atlantic Oceans that we don't know about now ?


Would it be possible to take infra red or ultra violet or x-rays of the earths oceans from space ?

Of course! Mankind knows tons more about Mars and other planets than under our own seas.

Barely any of the species of fish that dwell in Deep Water are known to mankind. And on various occasions, the seas have been a mysterious place. Of course, the Bermuda Triangle is no exception. The "Bloop" incident isn't one either. And how the Colossal Squid survives? We have yet to know.

How would we know if we don't know about it. It is like the question they used to ask you at the airport. "Did anyone have access to your bag that you didn't know about?" How would you know? Is there a possibility that something lies undiscovered? Of course.

If we don't know about them now, we can't very well say that there are. However, it is quite possible that there are as yet undiscovered animals in the oceans. I doubt that taking ultraviolet or infrared photos or x-rays from space would find them. They would be too small to identify in pictures taken from space.

Many, MANY things.

Infrared pictures take from space of the ocean would only show the differences of temperature of the water. You wouldn't be able to see the creatures in it.

I don't know if there is such a thing as ultraviolet pictures, but I do know that water stops ultraviolet light after a few inches, so it would be useless, too. Also, the ozone layer would block out any ultraviolet flashes you sent down.

AND, the ionosphere would stop any x-ray flashes you sent down.

We don't know. As soon as we do know, then the answer will be no. Because then we will know.
