"a future engineer, or a future scientist in the battlefield for truth". I love the way this man speaks.

Such passion! I've had science teachers who were able to communicate this kind of passion, and it's thanks to them that I'm pursuing a career in science.

Agree!🤣🤣

I think one of the best passionate, real passionate talk! About very important thing!

I wish they would have shown how long that standing ovation lasted

I had the opportunity to get to know robert personally my high achool guidance councillor said he had an office at the mystic aquarium in ct so i did, he came to my school twice, he showed me some stuff he got off an anchient roman shipwreck. He really is an incredible person who would take the time to talk to any adverage joe.

It's talks like these that make me excited to see what we will find and/or produce in the future. Very inspiring.

Great talk! Really enjoyed how his enthusiasm builds as the video progresses.

Probably one of the best public speakers in the scientific field

An amazing lecture spectacularly delivered! Deep-sea exploration is definitely one of the most underrated and overlooked fields of science in spite of the astonishing knowledge it could tap into. I am pleased to see it gaining momentum and exposure.

The way he was getting excited when talking about the methane volcanoes and upside down pools and the life signs they’d discovered, was getting me choked up.

Can't wait for more new and exciting discoveries!!!Thank you TED for this video.

I hate how he sees opportunity for exploitation everywhere, but then i love how passionate he is. Seeing such complete and honest passion is sadly pretty rare.

Great presentation. TED did its job- motivated us, inspired us, and enlightened us. Now it is up to us to get the knowledge out of it and invent tomorrow's future. It is up to us to explore both ends of this universe.

Spectacular, in 18 mins I learned more about the oceans and seas than I could ever imagine! Talk like Ted chapter 4 talks about him!

Loved this.

Opened up my eyes for the oceans! :)

What a great lecture! I love his passion for oceanic research.

What a great guy.

Prof Bob Ballard, what an amazing man he is

What he said is very true: we know more about outer space, galaxies and birth of the universe than we know about the ocean.

Speaking for myself, I think what I admire and respect most about Dr. Ballard is that he went out and did exactly what he describes as "in the works" from about 14:00 onwards. That "command centre" was built. It is now attached to two research ships which set out on annual expeditions of discovery. The discoveries *are* connected to some of the foremost experts that exist (in the US anyway) within minutes of the discovery itself and the results are shown to children and young people of all ages and backgrounds via schools and clubs later on. He could have rested on his laurels as the co-discoverer of the "Titanic" wreck and made a fortune on the speaking circuit for the rest of his days, but he has ended up providing an apparatus which has the potential to make an indefinitely positive impact on the future.

Fantastic presentation, he was very passionate, very enthused about his career, and it rubs off on the viewer. I wish I went into some sort of research field. Excellent video, made me curious about marine biology. Agree very much with what he said r.e. education, that's the future.

Great talk! Well done and so true with the colonization concept! It hasn't dawned on me until now how little we are doing with what we already have on Earth!

Great stuff!

Amaaaaaaazing!!! Someday I wanna explore the oceans too

aww I wanna see the exploration too!

What a passionate speaker. I had no idea that so much of our planet remains unexplored. I have a feeling I'll be hearing his name again :)

still a strong believer in an expanding earth... amazing ted talk

Super exciting! Watch this space...or rather Ocean!

Wonderful!!!! Amazing!!!

Brilliant!

wow, amazing!

this really gets you thinking

this guy is awesome!

amazing.

WOW just WOW.

I agree! All this talk about finding another earth like planet, when we already have one.

Amazing

This was a great lecture that taught me a lot in an area I knew next to nothing about. And the image of the girl on the end of the lecture was incredibly inspirational. You must really love your job!

Man, I wish I was him!

Pursuit of Truth Great sir

this guy is really into it

Bottom line, We aren't done learning and finding. These are exciting times!

We have all the time in the world to explore oceans and enough people that we shouldn't have a problem exploring both. I personally find more wonder in the cosmos than in the ocean, maybe my view will change when i go deep-sea diving, maybe not.

I find this so interesting! Thank you! Btw, don't blame that NASA gets all the money because that isn't the case. Take a look at the military budjet and cut that. Good speech!

16:27-17:40 = Enders Game.

Google Ocean? Yeah!

Inspiring, but I can see what's gonna happen next - I'll about to lose the rest of my afternoon looking up underwater exploration videos, I BLAME YOU BALLARD

Perhaps its a good thing that we aren't exploring the oceans, considering the damage we've caused to Earth from our activities primarily on land.

Oh good.Let's sell the rest of uncovered gold...

this video has been out for agessss

I wonder if someone built an underwater city already... we wouldn't even realize it.

What happens if they find Megatron buried down there?

A+

He is trying to start a new idea. He wants to know why we are mapping other planets with more funding, then we are mapping our own planet. The correct use of 'throw' is 'through' in your comment btw, just helping out.

this guys amazing he was the one who found the titanic

9:05 shhhhhhh

Let's build the SeaQuest :D

robert billard fuckin is a fantastic speaker

Que esta expedicion, me parecio muy interesante, ya que estuvo lleno de intereses,emociones entre otras

"Do not even suggest" is a great way of preventing progress because some barely informed person thinks it could maybe go wrong.

Charlie Hutto....not Titan sir, Europa and potentially Ganymede, yes.

We kind of view the sea as sacred and scary. Now, the mysteries will be revealed to us all.

I'm trying to say how space just is so much more significant than the oceans, not that the oceans are unimportant. Neil DeGrasse Tyson did an excellent explanation in a video. Maybe you could look for it. It had to do witht he importance of NASA's budget.

I agree this is better than going to the moon or Mars. Hey, our moon doesn't even have a name.

No, porque hay muchas lunas en el universo.

fuckin yes sir

Meteor no. But, considering there at at least 5 Massive Volcanic Caldara visible on land with capacity to at least alter the course of human history if not take a nice chunk out of the population. Imagine, given the activity below the surface of the ocean. How big one might get down there.

Maybe we could call the moon, Ted.

30 rock

We could explore both the ocean and space at the same time if we went to Titan.

Fuck space, it's all about the oceans

bashing? he merely described, comprehensible and objectively, that ocean exploring should receive way more attention, similar to the exploring of space. in no sentence he "bashed" nasa.

Don't frame the funding as a competition with space! Frame it as a competition with the military or other non-scientific expenditures. (I realize military purposes have spearheaded lots of scientific research but it would be nice to have governments and people motivated by pure exploration and scientific curiosity rather than blowing up other countries).

Anon Amous Yes exactly. Although NASA gets more funding than NOAA, it's budget is puny compared to the military. NASA= 18bil/yr. Military = 1tril/yr.

In fairness, he goes out of his way to say that it isn't a zero-sum game. He's not advocating transferring NASA's budget to NOAA; he's asking why the funding can't be taken from elsewhere to have them both as effective at their jobs as each other (it's a given that NASA will take a lot more funding to make exploratory findings as significant as NOAA can, simply due to the vast discrepancy in the total areas involved).

I can answer that final question. It's simple. The ocean floors were bulldozed over 12,000 years ago and probably much earlier than that. All kinds of giant trees were cut down and covered over. The perpetrators did this so that they could take all of the advanced technology of the day and use it to set themselves up as gods after knocking the rest of us back to the stone age. The bulldozers were 400 miles wide and 100 miles wide. Before the flood (and after the flood as well), people were obsessed with terraforming the earth. They also cut down all the giant trees. The combination of this and who knows what else, caused the earth to shift and that caused the flood. After the flood was over someone got out there with these giant bulldozers and covered up the distruction.

why

Space exploration is just as exciting and has more spin off then Oceanic Exploration. And for the love of God please do not even suggest building colony in middle in the sea, just imagine the damage will it do to the ocean. Anyway both path are noble and as long as we exploring, its a good thing, why not explore both?

that is a point why are people going in to space if we did not explore the entire sea they should have done that instead of just wondering off to space!

wonder why Wikipedia says NASA's budget is just triple the NOAA budget because that doesn't sound like it would fund for a thousandth years desu

The portion of NOAA dedicated to exploration. Most of NOAA is for weather science, ecosystem monitoring, and disaster recovery.

Okay I can answer this guys questions pretty damn easy- More people are inspired by space travel than ocean travel. The end. Thanks for asking. How does he not get this? Sure there is bunch we can get from under the sea but children are not going to be inspired to seek an education because of oceans. Unless those oceans are in space.

Robert Ballard, I am unsure whether you will see this but if you do can you do me a personal favor. Create a youtube channel yourself or someone with this exploration to post weekly videos of what your finding. No more than ten minutes please. I think that would go a long way to seeing the real interest of the public for this. Thanks. Oh and please share a link with me.

You have to prove objects made you before you can say they did.

It’s typical human behavior isn’t it? We just value what we have. We want what we can’t have.

I believe in Robert Ballards belief in taking care of and exploring the ocean and Gods resouces he has given

Huh, anti-synthesis, is that like outside in or inside out? Something from something or vice versa? Can there be such a thing as nothing from something, when something is nothing.

i want more of this ocean exploration and enjoyed this talk despite the creationist tone robert seems to have.
