Interesting that he dove in Micronesia on the weekend, given that he said the other day that the Micronesian explorers were a big part of his inspiration for Avatar 2. Anyway, he needs to make that fucking movie now. The idea that he's going to do a second dive some time later in the year, as opposed to sooner means that he's not coming out of pre-production for a long goddamn time. 2016/2017 for A2.
Considering how hazardous it is to travel to Challenger Deep in the Mariana Trench, one might have thought that James Camerons recent historic trip to the lowest known location on Earth would be the last for some time.
Apparently not. Just a few short weeks after Camerons voyage to the bottom of the sea, the famed filmmaker and his team are already gearing up for another trip to the Mariana Trench.
You cant over-interpret from one single glimpse, Cameron told National Geographic News last Wednesday. What I wasnt able to do is get very far up the north slope. I was looking for a fault scarp, and I wasnt able to find one before I ran out of bottom.
The project, called DEEPSEA CHALLENGE, aims to return to the Challenger Deep in the Mariana Trench at some point within the next year, and the next trip to the lowest point on Earth will possibly be longer than the firstwhich lasted about 3 hours.
We always planned it in two gos, Cameron told National Geographic. The first [phase] primarily focused on proving and refining the technology, [with] the second one being more science-focused once we had a proven platform.
Cameron and his deep-diving team took the submersible used to carry Cameron and his team to the Challenger Deep for a relatively shallow dive on Saturday. The filmmaker his crew took the Deepsea Challenger to a depth of 3,600 feet just a bit off the coast of the small island of Ulithi, part of Micronesia.
