The earth can seem like such a big place sometimes. You can stand at the edge of an ocean and feel its vastness. In fact 70 percent of the earth is covered in ocean, and yet we have only explored 5% of it. In other words, 95% of the ocean has not been viewed by a single pair of human eyes. That’s quite a lot when we are spending so much time and money exploring the surface of Mars. The earth is huge, and we aren’t too interested in discovering a lot of it.
