In August, a 33 member team—from ship’s captain to engineers to biologists, technical crew and others – explored the deep canyons of the Bering Sea from the Greenpeace vessel Esperanza. Using underwater cameras mounted to Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) and single-person submarines, the five pilots on the team completed 25 dives in Pribilof and Zhemchug Canyons, down to a maximum depth of 1,950 feet.
This event is free and open to the public.
