![]() ![]() They’re often quite a lot smaller than the normal type of submarines and people will only be able to travel in a small compartment. Their windows are made of super thick glass. This is because there are only weak currents in the abyss zone. So you can see how even machines have to be incredibly tough to be able to withstand that pressure without crumpling like an old pop can.ĭeep sea submarines – the ones that go deeper than anything else – have to have very thick hulls. Skeleton: abyssal fish have weak bones as they have no need for stronger bones. That’s like the weight of a small car pushing on every square inch. Now people can dive down hundreds of feet if they’re specially trained and have the right equipment – but much more than that and it gets a bit squashyĪt a kilometre under sea level, the pressure is 1,500 pounds per square inch. But! But go down just 10 metres under water and the pressure increases by 15 pounds per square inch – that’s like the weight of a medium sized dog on every inch of your body. Deep oceans were earlier known to have no. The word abyssal is derived from the Greek language, the word means bottomless. ![]() Deep-sea life is still a secret and it's right to say that we don't have all the resources to uncover what lies under the deep ocean. When you’re on dry land there’s pressure all around from the air but because it’s equal to the pressure inside our bodies, we don’t notice it. The abyssal zone is those deep-sea regions that are under the depth of 2000 m (6,561 ft). ![]()
