Beautifully simple infographic on the deep sea

From the BBC: "Icy cold, pitch black and with crushing pressures — the deepest part of the ocean is one of the most hostile places on the planet. Only two explorers have made the epic journey there: 11km (seven miles) down to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean's Mariana Trench. As a new wave of explorers is gearing up to repeat this remarkable dive, take a look at the mysterious world that they will be plunging into."

"Scroll to see the ocean's deepest depths."
