00:00:08.406 --> 00:00:12.330
We're diving in the Gulf of Mexico at a depth of about 800 meters.

00:00:14.426 --> 00:00:19.290
And we're exploring a shipwreck that was first mapped 10 years ago.

00:00:19.490 --> 00:00:24.230
Today is the first scientific archaeological survey of the site.

00:00:28.303 --> 00:00:31.910
The Gulf of Mexico is a very interesting place for archaeological sites.

00:00:32.110 --> 00:00:36.860
There are several thousands of shipwrecks that are thought to be on the floor.

00:00:38.854 --> 00:00:45.530
All of these sites are very interesting features because they are of course time capsules and are windows into the past.

00:00:48.300 --> 00:00:54.020
We're actually going to do a mapping video survey, driving back and forth, taking very good video of the area.

00:00:55.310 --> 00:00:57.690
This is something that's used for photogrammetry.

00:00:57.890 --> 00:01:01.560
So a technique used to do 3D visualizations or reconstructions.

00:01:06.803 --> 00:01:08.480
This guy's gonna block my view.

00:01:15.375 --> 00:01:17.510
And we just got a sea cucumber.

00:01:18.839 --> 00:01:20.280
The headless chicken monster.

00:01:22.127 --> 00:01:23.780
Would that be photo"bomb"metry?
