For most of us, the endless smartphone scroll has become an everyday reality as we catch up on group chats and make our way through Instagram and X. But what if we could train our thumbs on a website that took us on long journeys through the Earth, teaching us about its many wonders within minutes? The Deep Sea and Space Elevator by coder Neal Agarwal are akin to escapes into nature and the sky, just a few clicks away. As you scroll down The Deep Sea, you discover the depths at which familiar animals such as the polar bear and giants like the killer whale swim. Agarwal also marks the furthest point that a human being has dived to—332 m underwater. Thereon begins the fascinating territory of deep sea creatures in the midnight zone, where there are no traces of sunlight. The Space Elevator is exactly that—a way to ride up the many floors of the atmosphere, where monarch butterflies soar over the average sky diver. Look out for the cute human widget on the left-hand side which switches to a scarf and then a space suit, as the elevator crosses the summit of Mt Everest into the stratosphere and mesosphere.
