Notes
Date is approximate. Text from Discovery of Hydrothermal Vents site: On Feb. 15, ANGUS (Acoustically Navigated Geophysical Underwater System) was lowered to the depths to scout the area. Built at Woods Hole for Project FAMOUS, ANGUS was a 2-ton steel cage. It was equipped with cameras and powerful strobe lights. It had a sensor that could detect water temperatures changes as small as 0.005°C. And it had acoustic transmitters that talked to the transponders so that the equipment could be navigated in the dark depths. ANGUS was towed behind R/V Knorr on a steel cable that stretched to the ocean bottom. It was towed 4.5 meters (15 feet) above the seafloor. Unlike the more delicate Deep-Tow, ANGUS was designed to survive occasional collisions with rugged terrain. Painted on ANGUS's side was the motto: Takes a Lickin But Keeps on Clickin. As R/V Knorr fought a 1 1/2-knot current to stay over the target site, ANGUS cruised 2,500 meters (8,250 feet) below, taking a photograph every 10 seconds.
