These robotic submarines help researchers find and collect materials from the seafloor. The fact that the particles landed in the ocean, instead of on land, means larger pieces may have survived and can be studied. For this reason, scientists decided to launch the first intentional search for meteorites from the ocean. Until the latest research, scientists had only accidentally discovered a small number of meteorites from drilling operations.To recover the rock particles.To observe movements of the universe.C.D.A huge meteor shower.B.Plenty of natural resources.The brainstorm of researchers.（3）Why do the scientists prefer to search for meteors in the ocean?
