BEIJING: Designers of China’s latest domestically developed scientific submersible, the Fendouzhe, or Striver, are now striving for another goal: to offer underwater tours to the public.

This latest development comes as China prepares for manned expeditions for scientific exploration with Fendouzhe to the deepest part of the oceans – the bottom of the Mariana Trench in the western Pacific Ocean.
