The meme is funny, this isn’t criticism of that.
BUT this general point always rubs me the wrong way. Do people realise how fucking big space is? The observable universe contains so many fucking planets that we don’t even know exist, some of which have their own oceans we know absolutely nothing about. We have literally no idea what like 95% of the stuff out there even is (dark matter, dark energy).
And that’s just the observable universe. The rest of it likely comprises even more space than the observable universe. And that isn’t “stuff we don’t know yet,” it’s literally “stuff we could probably never know based on the laws of physics.”
Like we know surprisingly little about the ocean. That is shocking. But there is no need to make such a bizarre claim to get that across.
OK, rant over.
I think this meme misremembers the idea “we know more about the moon than our oceans” which is much more believable.
might be easier to bring the lab to the bottom of the ocean than vice versa
isopods are cool dudes we need to find them all
