Favourite Thing: Exploring the ocean floor in a deep-diving sub, and seeing its landscape and inhabitants for the first time. It’s an awesome feeling: my team and I are usually the first people ever to visit the part of our planet that we’re exploring, and see the new species that live there. Often what we find isn’t what we expect, and I like that because it reminds us how much we still don’t know about the world around us.

What I do: I explore undersea volcanoes in search of new species of deep-sea creatures, so that we can better understand the web of life in the oceans – our planet’s largest habitat and last unexplored frontier.
