Nah, nothing Michael Bay has ever written will ever, EVER be part of Transformers canon. :lol:

Awesome, in ways both serious, and amusing. :lol:

I actually have a cool documentary on my computer about the Mariana Trench. Scientific stuff about earth and nature like this fascinates me. :spock:

And here it is on Youtube!

Sadly, whoever wrote that genius line in Transformers couldn't even use wikipedia because they cite the Laurentian Abyss as the deepest point on earth. :noway:

That History channel documentary was interesting, but also kind of annoying. They showed that 3D zoom into the trench like 20 times throughout the video and they kept saying the exact same info over and over again, as if we have really poor memories and attention spans. Also, there were some informational errors in there. While the Mariana Trench IS the lowest elevation in the Earth's crust and the lowest part of the ocean, it is NOT the closest part of the Earth to the core. It kind of surprised me that the History channel doesn't even know basic geology. The Earth is not a perfect sphere. The closest part of the seafloor to the center of the Earth is around the north pole.

It suprises me that Naren knows so much about Geology :yesway:

Good find, Q.

It suprises me that Naren knows so much about Geology :yesway:

I'm a huge astronomy nerd and geology is basically just the parts that focus strictly on the planet Earth (although there is also planetary geology which is geology that focuses on other planets). But I tend to be pretty read-up, thanks partially to my family having a full set of the World Book Encyclopedia and when I was a kid, I would always just go downstairs and read through them, focusing on whatever seemed interesting. We got several other encylopedias later. I've always just liked to look up anything that I wondered about. :yesway:
