But equally exciting, and even more vital, is that of "inner space," the immense untapped potential of the ocean depths. This lively book charts the eye-opening array of activities now directed toward exploring and developing our oceans. Throughout history men have sought to master the sea: But in recent years there have been break-throughs in knowledge and technology beyond past generations' wildest dreams. Atomic submarines cruise thousands of miles without surfacing. Such daring men as the French oceanographer, Jacques-Yves Cousteau and the American astronaut-turned-undersea-explorer, Scott Carpenter, have actually investigated the possibility of human colonies on the ocean floor. Still others have opened up dramatic new techniques for utilizing the tremendous mineral resources and water supply of the sea.
