Row row row the ship,
Out on the Black Sea. Row faster faster faster Capt wants to water ski. Quote:

Well,.. 50 miles from shore at least that one time that they never came back.
|
That 50 miles may not have been intentional, could have been a storm.
|
...could have been that left turn at Albuquerque.

Methinks the pristine condition is due to the anoxic state of the water at that depth. No oxygen, no bugs, no worms, no fish, no worries.

I remember several years ago reading an article that discussed how archeologists were excited to be looking for ship wrecks in the Black Sea. I can't remember WHY they were excited. Maybe they had new high resolution sonar or something. But this article cautioned that even though archeologists expected that there were hundreds and hundreds of wrecks in the Black Sea, they might all be severely damaged. Apparently there is some sort of fishing technique they do there where nets are dragged along the bottom, and that was likely to damage any potential sites.
I guess the Black Sea is so vast that not every site has been destroyed. Pretty awesome. |
No sense in dragging nets 2km deep, there is nothing edible down there.

Who took the photograph of the sub?
|
The ship carries two ROVs.
