Vrag fundet på 6.456 meters dybde

En bemandet mini-ubåd har fundet og fotograferet det dybest beliggende vrag i verden, den amerikanske destroyer USS Johnston, der sank under et søslag mellem amerikanske og japanske krigsskibe ved Fillippinerne i 1944. Dykningen blev gennemført at det amerikanske selskab Caladan Oceanic.

USS Johnston.

USS Johnston havde en besætning på 327, hvoraf 186 fulgte med skibet i dybet.

Mini-ubåden fandt de forreste 2/3 af destroyeren intakt, hvilende oprejst på havbunden. Krigsskibet havde tydelig spor efter de træffere der i sin tid sænkede skibet.

Just completed the deepest wreck dive in history, to find the main wreckage of the destroyer USS Johnston. We located the front 2/3 of the ship, upright and intact, at a depth of 6456 meters. Three of us across two dives surveyed the vessel and gave respects to her brave crew. pic.twitter.com/N1AuzHIi0b

It's been so wonderful to share the story of the USS Johnston with so many people. Her crew and Captain, Ernest Evans - the first Native American in the Navy to be awarded the Medal of Honor, were extraordinarily heroic. Here's video from the dive and the bridge they fought from. pic.twitter.com/rAfEh78VJv
