government has shifted focus from saving lives to save the economy. counting the coast on al-jazeera. a team of chinese scientists are traveling to places no human has ever been. in banking on a daring deep sea mission in the hunt for red resistance and new spaces. on this episode of one a one east we go on board some of china's top engineers and scientists as they explore the depths of the indian ocean.
1:34 am
i think oh sorry sorry sorry that house which taints my turn next day. i long to find out starlight that. chinese doing laps of a chinese research ship in the middle of the indian ocean. the ocean and the shape of engineering in college a lot of all of my classmates. have no chance so god bar the she. has a chance. she's a trainee submersible pilot and she's anxiously awaiting her 1st ever deep sea dive which no woman from china has ever done before. she's part of china's mission to be a world leader in these final frontier. they're in a rice against countries like russia india and japan you know if she gets
1:35 am
the chance to dive she'll go nearly 3 kilometers under the sea to search for new mineral race horses and signs of life. maybe i can friend a song new alamosa new plants and of the sea that is granted before by humans but i read it and it made me. and i. was. there have animal in the word and there was johnny and wow it's gore that. she's working alongside 95 crew members on this ship just 4 of them when. they're also carrying fixed long a 3 person submersible that can take researches deep under the sea than any other machine on. looking for the nation the forms of walking
1:36 am
a slow ward where we've my feet come the fall we feel we're being might be coming from that's cool part. of the 4 women on this mission one of them is a microbiologist doctor who will study whatever life forms are brought to the surface plants and animals including tiny microbes known as. they come hand though mario are a high temperature and the are a price and they kind of use more of basic processor nutrient too so i that's kind of where that leaving and that's kind of the compound where that you can you out where you are you see a mirror to what was happening you opinions years old gold when there was no law i've been on earth is 6 i see me you look for the live well me me me me. this years our goal or to look for the law is us me when the company to different for the recess is a. what many scientists believe evolution began
1:37 am
to email bush and. the creatures found out may be the most basic and systems of the mind order. and there is one type of habitat in the deep ocean where you expects to find an abundance of them. there is a big here will say that all kinds of life form might be from the hives to what has all one is a week where the life was already making the news in years i'll go and i was in the middle other girl i always had told was size one of. the yeah we shoot you make science very exciting which of these exciting this is what i want to do science and i feel exactly that i feel alive i feel myself well i want to size everyone's anxious to get the 1st dive underway you want samples of marine life down there.
1:38 am
easy and the other trainee pilots want to see how it's really done else it's very hard and the hostage this mission professor tao wants to find hydrothermal vents and shot the size of their mineral deposits is very exciting because this is the 1st for the indian ocean for the chinese and the the 1st time for the balance for us hydrothermal vents like springs of burning hot water heated by deep sea volcanoes the law of ones will guide us to our target extinct things like an extinct volcano are these indeed chimneys have cooled off leaving richland is of mineral deposits for the taking getting too close to a long. my veins put in danger the sob and it's crude but the rewards of exploring any event are enormous. kobolds manganese compact and other precious metals
1:39 am
is a very very quickly it's better for us to to search for the hottest we'll feel good and the loss on the sea floor. on about to see them explore the dragon vent field an area known for underwater volcanic activity. it's near where the antarctic australasian and african tectonic plates me. even if it be down to a dragon feel. the fear when tao will pilot the 1st dive one of only 2 pilots qualified to drive the submersible jour own. he's the expert training young recruits like he. i hope for they will go out forever quickly quickly and yes i mean that time maybe maybe they can. just use my 40 dives they only have 2 professional pilot and. a
1:40 am
lot more than that to me and also you know what i'm into our country so i assume gains a. responsibility to me even knows that one day soon it will be her turn in the driver's seat for style maybe it's a lost interest. so i laid off it right. finally the ship is in position. the submersible has been checked and food is ready to pilot the 1st dive. you'll be going really 3 kilometers underwater. the crew had enough oxygen and now want to last in 10 alex. but lots can go wrong in that time.
1:41 am
it takes over an hour to reach the bottom of the our ship. the deeper the submersible goes the dock cat and colder. dropping to 2 degrees celsius. 4 hours pass with little signs of life. then the tains lead geologist professor tao spotted something. we see a lot so much hope. so i think that's the area we're looking for. water. only model the area is teeming with life which means they must be close to hydrothermal vents. though we are very lucky we found at the. edge of the big
1:42 am
freeze there that's the area where we have thought that's the very exciting. at last they spot the veins or. do need to be careful as they move the sob closer to the boiling hot water. when you'll was for a walk when was very busy very busy. you needed to construct all your and it's. the submersible is built to withstand extreme elements but it has an achilles heel its windows. the water spewing from a hydrothermal vent can reach 400 degrees celsius. if they get too close the plexiglass windows would melt and the sob would implode. but furnishings to get close to the bed to take a sample of its crossed. but
1:43 am
there's a problem. then realized that are left to the window was on the 1st black smoke. and out of the same time all or right window was was aware america goes to the main. the ocean current has pushed the sob over the stream of a vent the window may not withstand the hate adjuster. us into. he manages to move away. but then not out of danger yet. to get the sobbed. back to the surface i need to draw it to you maybe white guys. but only one white with a since that's nothing. special fos
1:44 am
being left in the ocean. the submersible has 7 directional propellers 2 of these are off with rusty but they designed for steering around the ocean floor north for pushing this hour up $3000.00 maces with white still attached i was wide bodied because of just. cannot fail. cannot anyone. to stop it barely moves. and by now they've been under for almost 10 al it's. all soon to run out of.
1:45 am
the sod stocks rise he says. finally it writes this to say it's. not up. to. me. when this obvious safely back in it's quite on the table realizes how lucky day i to be a lot com was 35 but not all that but what goes through the window more than your head under the bed of the book the most dangerous. oh. so dangerous. event scorched the sob just sent to meet his from its window where it right close to the mountain so you always get them out there when they hit it by the very very close 3
1:46 am
of them oh. oh no food noise how close he came to disaster today and his thoughts turned to his family back home in china. how he only knew one and a half years old. father yes i mean daddy. he's dedicated his life to this job that he loves but it's come at great personal cost. rule mr manning seems like my 1st song sister just missed the best of my song even made me so professed to marcescens. d'souza to her if i have a choice to tough less in the fields or how to stay with my son to stay with my. parents food looks forward to the day he's trying to ease will step up and start piloting their own mission it's. just one task that this is where it enters
1:47 am
our idea of those uncomfortable i lost the strong i tell myself again ok i must do it. it's my job. but before you get a chance to dive experienced a must try it again. day yet to bring back any samples. so the damage is repaired and excitement builds for the next dive but. this time biologists. doctor is anxious as she waits for a doctor and say. this guy is making salad even. at 6 of them. so this is really the 1st time that these kinds of women
1:48 am
violet. light in you see the search all. the live there must be a story it must be worry much different than what we see on that show or we want to laugh while media releases and i loud the weirdos. are mad so i'm. the sampling micro-organisms from hydrothermal vents will give insight into origin of life itself. but they need to get the samples safe into the sun. out of the rubber outs and so i feel. pretty sure that's transfer the response be to the city. that. i was. so stressed i just saw.
1:49 am
the sob is in position. that you is the moment of truth. the other way here are the way. it's been 3 hours it's. been the submersible stops transmission dollars are. they gathering samples from nearly 3 kilometers below what happened. it 'd worked. her. finger. when they bring mr george ya think straight yes and here we
1:50 am
describe the sad was the scientific away. also smile it's a witch kind of compound in my eye yet it really and the highly placed. we put this in the my mouse baby with well 7 i do is at least. specially designed equipment has carefully preserved live organisms under the same extreme high pressure conditions as where they live in the deep. space of the ice. there's about a little girl's and you know we can look at what good it will be as live. as it turns out minerals at this low spreading ridge are is rich as predicted making dragon field a prospect for mining. but what's even more valuable is the discovery that many
1:51 am
creatures here are different types of crabs snails and worms and more all of them than biologists ever expected and this is a good he this is only the no yes it is amazing. and the sad mostly on the buy it has a big issue appeal to the ara while levelling is still interest the nothing michael uses sample for their own research so we're talking about deep sea finding new enzymes and compounds that might help with medicine and the other and the about x. after you take them for a long time you'll call it resistance for the back and about dave's only need to look for a new form of them were to go play me to the sea. in the middle of the ocean a 5 week mission can feel more like 5 months. especially
1:52 am
for young chinese like. who up until now have done all their training on land. was the longest being out at sea. and our part of the ship before you are sometimes now but sometimes. the sails are revealed the areas crash. by this thing and the whole. now are forcing. whiting patiently each x. who will dive next. she's been told it's her turn tomorrow she'll have the chance to experience something few humans ever will. she be going to the bottom of the deep ocean
1:53 am
alongside a pilot and a scientist to put all her training into action. to put that into perspective there are more people going into space than there are going into the deep ocean. is about to become the 1st chinese female to do it. she invites me inside the saab for her final driver. ok. it's to. point. of view yeah. wow. and you spend 10 hours you.
1:54 am
go to. may be. just my of the me but maybe alito exciting and i comes to me very soon so take house in my new clothes and buried in the mirror and then. each one of them. and this thing looking up good for. the chinese flag in there. i like it. the day i become the training pilot i bring that one day there but it's there and don't fall. sets for myself you must be strong strong and strong there's no time for me to think of i think either of course of course afraid alito
1:55 am
alito yes to be honest. a little afraid. as dawn breaks the crew is pretty the same. after years of training this is the 1st time he will be involved in an actual deep same mission. today she won't be drawn back to tame the testing her ability to cope with extreme conditions from the. cold more than me. is sorry for us is so if we are fast.
1:56 am
walks on so we know it's a serious nor light but i can see that ending most bling bling bling bling bling me 1st of all. you see in your own eyes. is meiring exciting. cancer or any other word. you think yes i. do love. wired. i fond of big fish the fish is just so glad to have. i'll stay in this area. or. may find being alive. i'm tired of the small. of the window and the we
1:57 am
can see anything. everything goes to plan and he copes well with the pressure and impresses her. her shipmates away some back on board to celebrate the town i hope to have a pick filter and have been in. ottawa. yes. china is leading the global race to explore the dates they are mine but it faces growing competition from other countries. it's truly the last frontier. and china hopes their discovery will benefit the whole.
