India aspires to bring a revolution using ocean science to shape the national life and development activities, says retired scientist Anil Chatterjee of National Institute of Oceanography Post News Network
Since ages man has been on a mission to explore the mysteries that oceans contain within their depths. Despite unearthing of innumerable findings over the years, much of the ocean secrets have remained unexplored. In a bid to study various aspects of the ocean floor in an integrated framework, India has started working on Deep Ocean Mission, an ambitious project which envisages exploration of minerals, energy and marine diversity of the underwater world among others. It will put India in the company of nations like China, Korea and Germany.
