From the port of Fortaleza, a research vessel is setting out to descend into one of the least-known realms on Earth — the deep waters off Brazil's coast — carrying twenty scientists and the weight of a question humanity has long deferred: what lives in the darkness below, and what does it mean for our survival above? The R/V Falkor (Too) departs Sunday on a thirty-five-day mission to map the Amazon Canyon seafloor, trace the movement of carbon through the deep sea, and catalog species that may vanish before they are ever named. In a moment when the ocean's role in climate and biodiversity grow
