PRELIMINARY OBSERVATIONS OF THE STATE OF THE ARTS IN LOCATING OBJECTS IN DEEP OCEAN
Abstract
A review of the existing state of the arts in locating objects in deep ocean revealed that capabilities and equipment now exist for carrying out the various task objectives at ocean depths of less than 2,000 ft. At depths to 2,000 fathoms, present equipment could be modified to accomplish task objectives. For ultimate objectives of 6,000 fathoms, the pressures and distances are so great that successful locating, viewing, and manipulation of equipment at that depth cannot be assured. (Author)
