If you switch your lights on, right, it looks like mud. You have a lot of places that are very flat. Lovely, luscious, golden-brown. That's a good, healthy sea floor, OK. Sometimes you see some rocks and some rocky outcrops. You see cobbles and rocks and boulders. Sometimes it's a bit crazy. But none of these images look that weird. They look like something you would expect to see if you were scuba diving at night. So the actual visual landscape of the deepest places isn't that strange either, it's certainly not something you should fear.
