let's bring in fabian cousteau, planning a record 31-day mission at the bottom of the ocean, called "nd also the grandson of jacques cousteau. fabien, good to have you back. >> good to be back. >> why do we know so little about the ocean? >> well, a number of things. first of all, just to correct your first statement, although we do talk about the surface of the oceans being 72%, 73%, we're neglecting the third dimension. if you talk about the third dimension in the conversation, all of a sudden the oceans represent 99% of this planet's living space. so it's a huge volume. it's really difficult to get to many places, as we've seen, with some of the previous reports. and the resources are just not there. they're not being funded. >> okay. so as i understand it, only three humans have ever ventured to the deepest parts of the ocean. is that because technologically we're just not ready to go there, or we just don't know enough about it to prepare ourselves? >> well, the materials are there and ready. it's a matter of assembling and finding the funding to do so. you're right, there have o

so with me now is ocean explorer, fabian cousteau and so why don't we have better technology for deeparches? >> it's very simple. there hasn't been the funding for it. unfortunately, the technology that we have is very sparse. >> that's it, just a simple answer as that. >> the technology exists. we don't have the money for it. >> because of this, you think that will help? >> if there's more funding? >> yeah. you think it will help more funding now that people are aware -- >> i hate to spin it that way but unfortunately, you may be right. >> paul, if you were leading the search, what is the best equipment? do you think the bluefin is the best equipment and what is the best audio equipment that we should be using in this search? in the underwater search? >> well, there are a few different parts here. first is to locate the pingers. 100% certainty. and the second then of course is to use sonar to eliminate any doubt as to where we are looking for the aircraft, for the black boxes. we have the equipment. we have to make sure that we use it properly. my professor said 90% planning, 10% wor

cnn aviation analyst and pilot, les abend, author david soucie, expedition leader and explorer, fabian cousteau, cnn aviation analyst and pilot, miles o'brien and a former ntsb and accident investigator author of "air safety investigators, using science to save lives." fabian, how do they calculate the search area? what factors are they taking into account? >> well, expanding the area on the surface because of obvious factors such as weather, currents, and the fact that if there is a debris field on the surface, the things that are floating are probably dispersing and, therefore, you have to expand that search area. >> all right. alan, are we being too hard on malaysia? what kind of job do you think they're doing in the investigation. >> certainly they've made some very bad missteps early on, and we don't have to regail everybody with what they've done wrong. two things right that i see. first, they've got the em mer sat people involved. they located where the black boxes may be. and they turned the search over to the australians. so, we could be hard on them. i wish they had done what presiden

that's fabian cousteau. with a last name like that, it needs no other explanation.e and i'm going to get to that, but i wanted -- since i have you, you're just a perfect resource to talk about what's happening in south korea. the efforts that these divers, and you having dived since you're 4, the efforts these divers are going through, risking their own lives to find the other 143 missing bodies, it's presumed now, can you imagine what this task is like? >> well, yes, i can, and it's extraordinarily difficult. heart wrenching to see they have to go through this and the families have to go through this. going back to your other story, if you're climbing on the mountain, you're climbing on the ocean. water's everywhere. the oceans are the focal point as we get keeping slapped in the face over and over again about how little we know. >> so june 1st is a big deal for you. you've got a mission 31 expedition. you're splashing down in the keys. and your effort is to sort of mark the 50th anniversary of your grandfather's wonderful efforts that have taught us so much about

joining us to talk about this again, ocean explorer fabian cousteau and international maritime attorney incredibly high number of arrests from the captain to, you know, more than ten other crew members as well. now three members not associated directly with the ferry. search warrants. you know, this is an enormously wide investigation. the breadth here to me is very surprising. >> not to me. it's a very difficult case for the korean authorities to investigate. they have to understand the ship's stability, what her condition was at the time the vessel began her voyage. they have to look closely at the stowage. they have to understand exactly what navigation orders were given. and they have a lot of people to speak with. there's going to be quite a bit of confusion in the story. so piecing it altogether is very difficult. it's very important for the korean authorities to cast their net as wide as possible at this point and get as many people talking to them and understanding, so they can understand what happened. >> we're getting an idea of some of the confusion inside the boat in those m

. >> reporter: ocean explorer fabian cousteau says it's about time they increase assets and include submarines. >> there's a big difference between a robot or rov and auv versus having people down below searching with their own two eyes. there's only so much a sonar can do. visually speaking. now that said, the -- the area they're searching may not be the right area. >> reporter: that's why searchers may need to revisit even the most fundamental information which could mean yet another look at the inmarsat data used to establish the search zone. >> it's a matter of looking at all the data. whether it is satellite, whether it is radar, and that is very important as we charter our next course. >> reporter: one area that could be eliminated, the search by air. is it still relevant? >> if that search finds the slightest thing, the slightest piece of the aircraft, it would give them closure on what's going on. >> it's an extraordinarily difficult decision to make. and on a daily basis at that, i wouldn't want to be the one having to orchestrate this extraordinary complex search. >> reporter: jean c

a deep sea explorer, fabian couste cousteau, raised that question earlier. >> an ocean search specialistns us. so rob, that's the question. could they be in the wrong place? >> it's entirely possible that we're in the wrong place. but i don't think that is the case. you know, we're not here by chance. we're here because we followed a trial, a set of clues, if you like, to get us into this region. and then we were very lucky with what the controller believes were the pingers, and although the bluefin has almost completed searching that first pinger location, there are others still to go. but, you know, we didn't hit it lucky on the fine-scale search. now we need to broaden it up and cover more ground. >> we know that's something they had to do with the search for flight 447, air france, they had to you have moo the search area. we know that that's reasonable. here's the question. do they change the pings they search around? do they expand? do they redo their math? their calculations? >> i think all three things, really. i think there needs to be a wider search of the pinger location area.

fabian cousteau will be with us.re searching for the plane that we really need to know about. he will walk us through that at 10:00. you know what is coming up next. >> yes, absolutely. michael smerconish with interviews with the people who go down to these levels. deep sea divers who know a lot about the areas. be sure to join us at 10:00. right now, stay tuned for "smerconish." >>> good morning. i'm michael smerconish. one week ago at this hour, i stood here someone incredulous and said a chinese patrol ship picked up a pulse signal in the south indian ocean. that was last week anding in no has been found. no oil slick and no sightings of the missing plane. we heard this word overnight. >>> it is not a word associated much with the search, but that is apparently changing. >> there have now been numerous transmissions from the black box or from what we are confident is the black box that have been picked up by the various devices which australia is

cousteau. >> which one? >> jacques, fabian. >> sebob. >> a small group. >> i wanted him to come in and talk about it and he's working on a show and he will come in i time. so, listen, i want to start with that part of the world is considered extremely, extremely -- it's considered extreme, right? i should just say an extreme part of the world. how long can they keep looking? forever? this is very costly. you have a lot of people out there tiring themselves out. >> that's just it. you're talking about trying to find an object like the you were looking through the front door keyhole to see what's going on up in the attic. that's how clueless we are about this area. we have limited access to technology, although the technology that they're using is fantastic, of course. but there needs to be a lot more of it. and beyond that we just don't know the topography and it's really a pretty remote area as far as the general part of the world is concerned. to think about it, the ocean represents 3.4 billion cue bibb kilometers of space wi
