I want to know how long it'd take to boil an egg at the bottom of the Mariana trench. I'm thinking something like instantly. |

look at dat isopod, man. shoot.
The Drilling thing was really relevant, and it's interesting how mysterious the ocean is as opposed to all we know of galaxies. |

That is really a great image. It really paints a clear picture of the world we live in vs the world as it really is. |

wonderful, very informative. Max ive been upto is 19,000 ft above sea level to place ladakh and wow it takes several days until you get used to the low oxygen level, you get tired very very easily |

What do they mean boil an egg... don't they mean boil water? Who cares if there's an egg in the water?
It's to give an easily understandable example. The time taken to boil water would depend on how much water and how much energy you're supplying. They could be more accurate and state the boiling point of water at various altitudes. |

There is no way that someone has actually done that! Can anyone confirm that that is correct and they have been to the bottomn of the mariana trench?
Yes. It wasn't secret. Quite the opposite - they were unsurprisingly open about such a spectacular achievement. The deepest point was found from the surface by a survey ship (Challenger's deep, named after the ship) and some years later a manned vessel went right down there, to the bottom of the deepest part. Two people were in it. It took them hours and hours to get down. Amazing vessel, hugely brave crew. Many things can go wrong doing that and all of them will kill you. It's a more hostile environment than space. |

it would vaporize, and thus become invisible gas, but I really liked your detailed scientific reasoning
At ~16000 psi, when 530C would be the boiling point, would it vaporise then? Or have I exceeded the real limits of pressure on boiling points with my extrapolation? |

Yes some can survive down there. It hosts thousand of species of invertebrates and some fish. Guys! Google a bit!! |
