First sentence: FOR A LONG TIME THE HORIZON HAD BEEN A MONOTOnous flat blue line separating the Pacific Ocean from the sky.
Description: In the middle of the South Pacific, a thousand feet below the surface of the water, a huge vessel is discovered resting on the ocean floor.

Rushed to the scene is a group of American scientists who descend together into the depths of the sea to investigate this astonishing discovery.
