Tools of Deep Sea Exploration reveals the answers. The Institute for Exploration is a pioneer in the development of underwater vehicles dedicated to marine archaeology, engineering systems designed to operate in depths of up to 2.5 miles. Tools of Deep Sea Exploration gives guests a firsthand look at these and historic discovery tools and reveals how they have revolutionized deep-sea exploration. See the remotely-operated vehicle (ROV) Little Hercules, check out an antique Mark V dive suit and helmet on loan from the Connecticut River Museum, and take a video tour with Institute for Exploration Marine Engineer Todd Gregory of Argus, an optical imaging tow-sled, and Hercules, the first ROV capable of excavating an underwater archaeological site. |
