Dr. Deo Florence L. Onda
Onda started his voyage from the port of Guam to the Philippine Trench, while onboard the DSSV Pressure Drop last March 15.
DSSV Pressure Drop is the only marine vessel in the world capable of launching the deep-sea submersible DSV Limiting Factor that can carry humans and repeatedly dive to the deepest parts in the world’s oceans.
Onda will be descending about 10,400 meters or 34,100 feet deep, along with American undersea explorer Victor Vescovo, who currently holds the record for the deepest manned descend in the Marianas Trench in 2019.
“The Philippine Trench is a unique feature found within the EEZ (exclusive economic zone) of the Philippines, and it is only appropriate that a Filipino scientist be one of the first to hold this record in the Emden Deep,” UP-MSI said in a statement on Wednesday, March 17.
