OceanXplorer has had an exciting week breaking records and welcoming aboard new local scientists as we carry on with our mission in Indonesia of the west coast of Sumatra. Our ROV, which we affectionally call Chimaera, completed its deepest dive to date, reaching an incredible depth of over 4,700 meters. We've continued to encounter breathtaking megafauna as we survey the region so enjoy some of our favorites in this mission update.
