Successful investor Ray Dalio believes that exploring the 95% of our oceans that remain virtually unknown will be both more exciting and more important than a mission to Mars. His venture, called OceanX, brings together researchers, explorers, philanthropists, and media companies to make it happen. Ray already has significant experience in ocean exploration – he has been involved in various media efforts in recent years, and one of his remote submersibles recently found a lost Spanish Galleon holding as much as $17B in treasure. OceanX is looking for ideas for upcoming missions – submit yours at the link here. (www.oceanx.org/join-the-mission/).
