[edit]- Would be interesting, but it is not that easy to dive down there and take pictures.--Ratzer (talk) 10:39, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
- Hey Dan Varse, sorry, I meant Ratzer... For instance a map of the location could be included... I'm going through hell to find if Milwaukee Deep falls or not in the fabled "Bermudas Triangle" but no map helps, not even in google images... Anyway, it is the least that could be done... I guess now I could get pics with google earth that would serve to provide a map but I do not know how to upload photos in here... ut a stylized normal map would be better to determine whetehr it falls or not in the triangleUndead Herle King (talk) 20:55, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
We (the Five Deeps Expedition) referred to it as the Brownson Deep, not Milwaukee Deep
[edit]Hi there. I was the pilot of the mission to the bottom of the Puerto Rican trench (Victor Vescovo). My Chief Scientist on the expedition, Dr. Alan Jamieson, after consultation with his colleagues ashore and using our advanced sonar maps, determined that the deepest point was actually closer to the named "Brownson Deep" location than the Milwaukee Deep. In fact, the location of the Brownson Deep was a bit off so we have the new coordinates for it: 19° 43’ N 067° 18’ W 8376m
So, just to clarify . . . based on all of our sonar mapping and the first physical dive to it, we believe that the proper name for the deepest point in the Atlantic is the Brownson Deep, not Milwaukee, and we made this determination based on proximity of the actual deepest location.

- Thanks! But, at the end of the day, we cannot include this. Wikipedia, sadly, cannot just take your word for it, we need the words of one or more reliable sources. --moonythedwarf (Braden N.) 02:13, 26 January 2020 (UTC)
No worries at all, I understand. The scientists from the expedition are working the formal scientific papers and we will be releasing our sonar-derived maps to GEBCO when we are done naming everything we found. Just wanted people to be aware of what we found and what is coming. Thanks! 2600:100C:B247:9E43:BDC4:22FC:F45:3C83 (talk) 05:20, 28 January 2020 (UTC)
