Its like the ocean floor was the prairies, and we go down and always find the same stuff, so even if we've seen spots of the floor, we can predict with great certainty what we'll find, sure might find a few new species we haven't seen but the likelihood of finding something that would blow us away is unlikely.

The ocean floor is simply the same, almost everywhere on earth, we know what the floor looks like from our mapping of the ocean floor, we pick and choose interesting looking spots on those maps to go down and check out, but the vast majority of the ocean is a rather boring area.

Soooo, pretty much exactly like space then? (and I love space)
