To me, it's the ocean. Sure space is scary too, since there's no sound nor oxygen. But it sure as hell is fascinating. The ocean is on a whole different level. We've explored less than 5% of the depths and we don't know what could be down there.

We all know Cthulhu is down there in the ocean somewhere, and that's probably not all. There's lots of other stuff, the Kraken, Leviathan, Aliens, you name it. Seriously though, I've always thought we should be putting more into exploring our own planet - especially the oceans- more than exploring space, but that's just me. I'm absolutely terrified and fascinated by the oceans and what we could find - secrets to our past, discoveries, life forms, cave systems, etc. I wouldn't doubt it one bit if we did find something seriously crazy one day - aliens/intelligent life forms, creatures - who knows... Space is scary and fascinating as well, but it just seems so far away and the oceans are well... right here with us and we don't even know what's down there. Just wow...
