MARIANA TRENCH by Janet Spencer
• The Mariana Trench is a crescent-shaped trench in the Western Pacific Ocean, just east of its namesake Mariana Islands near Guam, north of Australia and south of Japan. The Mariana Trench contains the deepest known points on Earth. • The Mariana Trench is 1,580 miles long — more than five times the length of the Grand Canyon. However, the narrow trench averages only 43 miles wide. The depth of the water here is about 7 miles deep.

• The first depth measurements in the Mariana Trench were made by the British survey ship HMS Challenger, which was used by the Royal Navy in 1875 to conduct research in the trench. The greatest depth that they recorded at that time was 26,850 feet, measured by dropping a weighted rope overboard. • In 1951, another Royal Navy vessel, also named the HMS Challenger, returned to the area and discovered an even deeper location in the trench with a depth of 35,760 feet determined by echo sounding. This exceptionally deep part of the Mariana Trench was named the Challenger Deep after the vessels that made these measurements. The Challenger Deep in the Mariana Trench is the deepest point in Earth’s oceans. Turn the page for more!
