Oceans and the Seas are way important for humanity than the Moon, the Mars or any other space object. There are regions where our knowledge is less than the Moon. The global political trend is not in favor of scientific research. Therefore, the scientific researches should be conducted with minimum operational cost and additional efforts to increase the income. The scientists should not be beggars. But they need a proper strategical management to attain their financial freedom.
Every research ship sailing the oceans costs millions per day and cover only a small fraction of the area. As always, I propose the formation of vertically integrated company to develop autonomous robots to conduct the scientific researches remotely like the ones conducted on Mars. With fully electrified infrastructure the energy can be generated using wind and waves and no operational cost on the fuel.
Additionally, the research vessels should have quality video equipment onboard. These footages should than be edited by the artistic film directors, not the capitalist documentary channel editors. There would be shows and live coverages. Scientists should collaborate with the artists to win the hearts of the people. Give something esthetic to the people with poetic narration. People would pay because they feel happy, not they feel pity. Once the masses are with the science, the politicians have nothing to say but cooperate.
For long term success Convince the Voters not the politicians.
