DSV Alvin and Falcon ROV Capture First Close-Up Images of Shackleton’s Last Ship Quest

An expedition led by the Royal Canadian Geographical Society (RCGS) in partnership with Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) has obtained the first close-up images of the wreck of Quest , the last ship of famed Antarctic explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton, in the Labrador Sea. The images were obtained by WHOI's Falcon remotely operated vehicle (ROV) and DSV Alvin, the first submersible to visit the wreck of Titanic 40 years ago.
