On December 17, 1917, the U.S. Navy submarine USS F-1, crashed off the coast of San Diego. Now, more than a century later, researchers at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute (WHOI) have collected the first high-definition visuals of the wreckage. During a series of seven dives conducted earlier this year, researchers employed the crewed underwater vehicle Alvin and autonomous underwater vehicle Sentry, both based on the WHOI research ship Atlantis, to snap close-ups of the sunken submarine.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration wants YOU—to help identify a car that evidently sank to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean with the USS Yorktown in 1942.

In June 1942, Yorktown was stricken by Japanese vessels, including the aircraft carrier Hiryu and the submarine I-168, during the Battle of Midway—a naval battle that marked a

Companies around America have started cutting DEI programs and eliminating DEI commitments from public documents in response to legal and political threats from the Trump administration.
