WHAT IS THE CANGODEEP CHALLENGE?

It is a challenge in which students from different high schools in the Region of Murcia will aim to build a device capable of recording the depths of our seas.

The challenge is not competitive, but its purpose is to learn from each participating team, from their successes and failures, and to raise awareness in society about the need to protect the marine environment through exploration.

High school students will build a device capable of:

  1. Descending a minimum of 100 meters deep.
  2. Recording the ocean floor for a minimum of 10 minutes.
  3. Returning to the surface.

In addition to these three basic objectives, each team may propose additional ones, such as: sample collection, surface position reporting, image analysis by AI,...

CanGoDeep is not just a technological challenge but also a scientific one, demonstrating that deep-sea exploration can also be done with more affordable means. All recorded material will be available to the scientific community.

Moreover, it will also bring the ocean closer to the general public. Typically, when talking about the marine environment, people tend to think of that easily accessible stretch of the coast. However, we are only seeing the tip of the iceberg. The CanGoDeep challenge will reveal areas of the ocean that would otherwise remain completely hidden.

EL OCÉANO INVISIBLE.

La mayor parte del océano permanece inexplorado y oculto a nuestros ojos. Desde CORI queremos cambiar eso. Un centro de investigación sin ánimo de lucro que quiere hacer participe a todo el mundo de la exploración oceánica.Porque ¿cómo vamos a proteger algo que ni sabemos que existe?

¿Nos ayudas en nuestra labor? Tu contribución permitirá que:

  • Exploremos zonas nunca visitadas de los fondos océanico y hagamos participe a todo el mundo de ello.
  • Que impulsemos proyectos en los que estudiantes de institutos se conviertan en ingenieros y exploradores oceánicos.
  • Cada vez más gente conozca el océano invisible

THE UNSEEN OCEAN.

Much of the ocean remains unexplored. At CORI, we're on a mission to change that. As a non-profit research center, we invite everyone to participate in the world of ocean exploration. How can we protect the deep ocean without knowing what's happening beneath the surface?

Would you like to contribute? Your support will enable us to:

  • Explore the ocean seabed and share captivating images with the world.
  • Develop outreach projects, allowing high-school students to become engineers and ocean explorers.
  • Get more and more people to learn about the unseen corners of the ocean!

Become a part of our mission. Will you join us?
