We have more accurate maps of the surface of Mars and the Moon than of the floor of our own ocean — less than a third of the seabed has been measured in real detail, meaning most of the largest landscape on the planet has never been surveyed up close by a ship

We've explored the Moon in finer detail than 71 percent of Earth's ocean floor, a gap that represents not technological limits but a profound mismatch in how...
