he's chris hatfield and author of "an astronaut's guide to life on earth."d down on space from hours to this part of the world from orbit. help us understand how big and remote a part of that ocean is and also with this question, how well covered or not well covered is that part of the world by satellites? is that something that helps explain why they haven't been able to spot it yet? >> well, the space station is a tremendous place to see the world in a new way. i have spent as much time as i could spare as is the crew up there now with the big cameras looking down at the world trying to understand the surface. that part of the world is not a place we normally photograph because it's stormy, unpopulated ocean. and it tends to all look sort of the same and often it's quite cloudy. so i've looked through the lens there during the daytime. there's a few remote islands there, but mostly it's a vast, really untapped, untraveled expanse. and the immensity of the sea, sailors know about it, but even people on the space station can see just how large that is. and i
