MINUTO AZUL ESCURO TV SHOW

This 30-episode series seeks to raise awareness of the great value of the deep sea, the most massive and remote biome on the planet.

The deep sea is, by definition, everything below 200 meters deep, where sunlight no longer penetrates, which makes its exploration very difficult from a scientific point of view. This is why the scientific community continues to say that we know more about the surface of the Moon and Mars today than we know about the deep sea, which covers 65% of the entire Earth's surface.

Filmed between March 2023 and February 2024, at the Okeanos facilities, in the city of Horta, and aboard oceanographic ships, the new series showcases stunning images of the deep sea captured by manned submarines and remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), using the most advanced oceanographic platforms, such as the RV OceanXplorer from the OceanX and the RV Okeanos Explorer from NOAA.
