Deep ocean technology offers never before seen images of lost WWI submarine

A deep-sea training and engineering dive off the coast of San Diego provided an opportunity for never-before-seen imagery of the U.S. Navy submarine USS F-1, lost at sea in an accident on December 17, 1917, that resulted in the death of 19 crew members. The detailed, high-definition images of the final resting place of the WWI-era sub were made possible by a group of interagency teams, as well as advanced deep-sea imaging technology.
