The program will leverage advancements in materials, manufacturing, and next-generation structural and mechanical design technologies to dramatically reduce the size, cost, and development time of deep-ocean systems.

This is a tragic incident in which a woman and her young child have lost their lives. Our thoughts are with their loved ones.

The HC-130 Hercules crew saw the vessel early in the day about 100 nautical miles northeast of the Mariana's last known position, but authorities could not confirm its identity.

For 81 years, the USS Torsk held its claim to fame as the last US Navy submarine to sink an enemy ship in combat. Then, a US Navy submarine torpedoed an Iranian warship on March 4 as part of Operation Epic Fury, sinking an enemy ship for the first time since Torsk's World War II battle in 1945.

"We've exposed those covert operations. We've made clear to [Russian President Vladimir Putin] and his submarines that we've watched them every step of the way," Healey said, adding that British forces deployed maritime patrol aircraft and sonar systems to maintain constant surveillance.

"News accounts of the accident, as well as the study of water currents, led us to the Milwaukee after only two days searching," Neel Zoss of the association said in a statement at the time.

The Titanic met her end by colliding with an iceberg, and about two and a half hours later, it was on the bottom of the North Atlantic.

To be able to take a ship from new construction and watch it be built together by the ship yard, train with our team and bring into Boston Harbor for the first time, it's very amazing. I looked at the history books. I don't think we've had a submarine in Boston Harbor since sometime in the late '80s or early '90s.

The voyage of the crew in a 22.5-foot ship's boat through the 'Furious Fifties' is regarded by many historians as the greatest small-boat journey ever completed.

The Russian shadow fleet is a ticking environmental time bomb. The question isn't if there will be a catastrophic spill, it's when. Older tankers can suffer from metal fatigue, corroded hulls, and overall structural deterioration, significantly increasing the risk of structural failures at sea.

The Titanic was one of a trio of similar White Star Line ships completed in the early nineteen-tens. In the video above, Bill Hammack, known on YouTube as Engineerguy, tells the story of not just the Titanic, but also the Olympic and the HMHS Britannic. An engineering professor at the University of Illinois, he found in the campus library issues of the journal The Engineer published between 1909 and 1911 that contain detailed photographs of the construction of both the Titanic and Olympic, sister ships that were built side-by-side.

A 64-year-old woman scuba diving at a popular diving spot off the coast of Catalina Island died after showing signs of distress in the water, authorities said. A 64-year-old woman died Saturday morning after scuba diving at a popular location off the coast of Catalina Island. The woman, identified by the Los Angeles County medical examiner's office as Carolyn Alvarez, was diving near the Casino Point underwater park when she started showing signs of distress, authorities said.

Recovered CWMs continue to pose worker and food safety risks. Because of ocean drift, storms, and offshore industries, sea-disposed CWMs locations are largely unknown and potentially far from their originally documented dump site. The three incidents exposed at least six crew members to mustard agent, which causes blistering chemical burns on skin and mucous membranes.

In 1916, subway construction near Greenwich and Dey Streets in Lower Manhattan unearthed a surprising relic. Some 20 feet underground, workers turned up charred timber; digging further, the contours of an ancient ship came into view-its prow, keel, and ribs. The wreck was later deemed to be the Tyger, a 17th-century vessel that represents a rare archaeological trace of early Dutch exploration in Manhattan.

The Coast Guard launched a search and rescue mission early Friday after receiving an alert from the 72-foot Lily Jean about 25 miles off Cape Ann. Searchers found a debris field near where the alert was sent along with a body in the water and an empty life raft, the Coast Guard said. Crews covered about 1,000 square miles (2,589 square kilometers) using multiple aircraft, cutters and small boats over a 24-hour period.

Archaeologists have fought the tides to save a 17th-century shipwreck from a popular nudist beach in Dorset. The remains are believed to be part of the Swash Channel Wreck, a Dutch merchant ship called The Fame of Hoorn that ran aground while approaching Poole Harbour in 1631. The wreck was found on Dorset's Studland Beach at the end of January when Storm Chandra washed away the sand that had kept it hidden for almost 400 years.

The World War II submarine USS Lionfish was part of America's "Silent Service." Despite comprising less than 2% of all US Navy vessels during World War II, submarines like the USS Lionfish sank 55% of Japanese vessels in battle. This once-fearsome vessel is now a 311-foot-long museum exhibit, allowing the public to learn about its top-secret wartime operations. Take a look inside the USS Lionfish.

Jason Vasquez, 51, of New Bedford, was found dead in the harbor Jan. 31, the Bristol County District Attorney's Office said in a press release. He was last seen Jan. 28 after he visited a "local adult establishment," the DA's office said. Prior to his death, Vasquez worked on a ship at the New Bedford Shipyard and Shoreline, the DA's office said. His boss reported him missing Jan. 30 after his vehicle was found in the shipyard's parking lot.
