Hidden San Diego: Including La Jolla, the Zoo, San Diego County Beaches, and Tijuana

This companion volume to the new 3-D, giant screen film from James Cameron director of Titanic, takes readers on an extraordinary journey to the little-known world of deep-sea vents, the steaming crucibles of creation that may given rise to life on Earth- and may offer clues to life in outer space. Director and producer James Cameron, whose career spans hit films from The Abyss to Terminator to True Lies, and the phenomenally successful TITANIC will next take filmgoers on a dive to the crucible of creation. Plunge into the deep ocean for an unprecedented experience in this vast and little- explored corner of our planet. Aliens of the Deep follows a team of scientists as they explore the deep ocean vents of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Here, 12,000 feet below the surface the Earth is literally being torn apart. Super-heated water and chemicals spewing from the center of the Earth have given rise to some of Earth's most unusual life forms. As the story unfolds, the fantastic diversity of the deep sea is revealed; its strange communities of organisms, its bioluminescent creatures, shipwreck gardens, and awesome giant predators. The stories of these amazing creatures are the story of the shimmering miracle of life-its origins on the Earth, its global significance, and the possibility of its existence in other parts of the solar system..
