We regret to inform you that National Geographic will be removing this app from sale as of May 13, 2016.


In 2012, National Geographic explorer and Academy Award-winning filmmaker James Cameron embarked on a historic expedition to the deepest place on Earth. Now its your turn.

On March 26, 2012, National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence James Cameron piloted the DEEPSEA CHALLENGER, currently the worlds deepest diving manned submersible, to Challenger Deep in the Mariana Trench. He was only the third person in history to ever reach that point, and the first person to do so alone. His dive brought back images and samples that scientists are still studying today.

Now its your turn. Recognizing your passion for exploration, National Geographic has named you the new pilot of the DEEPSEA CHALLENGER. After months of training at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, the largest private, non-profit oceanographic research institution in the world, youre ready to set sail.
