Expedição Aquatilis
Uma equipa de 12 jovens cientistas, liderada pelo biólogo marinho Alexander Semenov, vai aventurar-se numa "viagem submarina" de três anos, para explorar as profundezas do mar.

A expedição denomina-se Aquatilis. Os investigadores irão "descobrir" mais de 56 mil kms entre os Oceanos Atlântico, Pacífico e Índico em busca de novas espécies de seres marinhos, a bordo de um navio de 21 metros, feito sob medida para a missão.

A saída está programada desde Marmaris, Turquia, durante o verão de 2015. Até lá, a equipa está a angariar o financiamento necessário para tornar esta "viagem de sonho" uma realidade.

"As humans, we are naturally attracted to the exploration of our world. Our curiosity leads us to explore the most remote parts of the Earth, from the top of Mount Everest to the middle of the Pacific Ocean. We are drawn to novelty.
In childhood, many of us were fascinated by the travels of Jacques-Yves Cousteau who showed us, landlocked, the depths of the sea, by the underwater mysteries uncovered by Robert Ballard, or else by the exploits of Sir David Attenborough, whose calm poise helped us witness extraordinary inhabitants of the Earth."

The expedition will involve lots of cool things: satellite broadcasting from distant corners of the world, a custom-made remotely-operated underwater robot with a built-in 4K camera, handsome hard-working scientists but, best of all, plenty of fresh juicy knowledge for everyone.
The team believe it’s time for a new Underwater Odyssey fit for the 21st century, an expedition that uses the full scope of possibilities that modern technologies and media have to offer. Read more here
