Image Of the Day caption:
WHOI research specialist Mark Dennett (right) helps guide a REMUS 6000 autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) into Great Harbor in Woods Hole for testing in July. Dennett and a team from the Oceanographic Systems Laboratory operate the vehicle, which can dive to a maximum depth of 6,000 meters (3.7 miles) and remain submerged for up to 22 hours. The vehicle is one of two that were used to search for the wreckage of the missing Air France airliner off the coast of Brazil in 2011. It is currently on a cruise in the Northeast Pacific to scan the seafloor for manganese nodules.
