Musk unveiled the ambitious project at Tesla’s Gigafactory, emphasizing the need to explore Earth’s oceans, which cover over 70% of the planet yet remain largely uncharted. He stated, “There’s an entire world beneath the waves… if we’re serious about solving Earth’s biggest challenges, we need to explore the oceans with the same intensity that we explore space.” The unofficially named Tesla submarine aims to combine Musk’s expertise in electric vehicles and robotics with cutting-edge marine engineering.
