Marcus Contreras Current Event #2

A team of explorers have revealed an underwater cave that could be the world’s deepest. The cave measures at about 1,325 deep, and it’s located near the Czech town of Hranice. Polish explorer, Krzysztof Starnawski told The Associated Press that he felt like a “Columbus of the 21th century” to have made the discovery. He determined that the flooded limestone Hranicka Propast was at least 404 meters deep. He scuba dived a depth of 200  meters and then let a robot that went to the depth of 404 meters and it still didn’t hit the bottom. His discovery beats the previous record holder, Pozzo del Merro, by 39 feet. He plans to dive 200 meters again to bring the robot back through the passage. He said that National Geographic covered some of the expedition’s cost.
