Would you rather explore space or the ocean

Outerspace.

Can't stand getting wet, and the pressure will kill ya. The oceans are filled with strange things that are mostly known, with variations on the theme. And Atlantis looks like an old wives tale.

Outer space on the other hand is relatively unexplored, property rates are low and you can claim vast tracts of land and mineral as yours till some more powerful aliens come and take it away with their blasters. Which given our track record with aliens, seems a low probability.

Also outer space does not have taxes. It does have that other irritant, death, which I am prepare to ignore.
