Ray Dalio: Why I’m exploring the ocean, not space
Billionaire investor and philanthropist Ray Dalio has had a passion and curiosity for under-sea exploration since he was a child, inspired by Jacques Cousteau. We have explored less than 5% of Earth’s oceans, estimates Dalio. He is working to change that. After having purchased an ocean exploration ship, his son Mark, a filmmaker with National Geographic, and director James Cameron urged him to capture those moments. Dalio founded Alucia Productions, now OceanX Media, to help bring that experience to the public. Dalio describes his vision for educating and inspiring students, as well as his new exploration vessel. OceanX Vice Chairman Vincent Pieribone, currently in the Red Sea, discusses the outfitting of the new vessel, and the importance of ocean conservation. Plus, Dalio details his close encounters with arctic wildlife, care of NatGeo photographer Paul Nicklen, and a ‘mind-blowing’ experience he had under water.
