We dive deep into the world of submersible exploration in this episode, and discuss what we can learn from traveling to the deepest parts of our oceans. We know more about outer space than our own oceans here on earth. The co-founder of Triton Submarines, Patrick Lahey, is hoping to help change that, and he explains why deep sea travel is so important in this conversation. 

We all watched in horror this summer as one submersible ignored safety warnings and imploded near the Titanic in June. We discuss what was uniquely risky about that trip and contraption, and the lessons for the industry and governments from that disaster. 

Lahey makes the pitch in this conversation for why deep ocean travel is not only safe but necessary for humans, including some of the things we are discovering about our planet, health and medicine through this type of exploration.
