Divers Tending a Submersible
A prototype of a submersible is launched by the Oceanic Institute of Hawaii. Modern submersibles carry oceanographers as deep as 5,000 m (16,000 ft). Submersibles use electronic devices to photograph and monitor the ocean depths in addition to collecting samples from the ocean floor.
