USS Lexington This discovery was made thanks to the help of Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen and the US Navy. In February of 2018, after searching the Coral sea, which is about 500 miles off Australia’s east coast, divers finally found the remains of the USS Lexington. 11. Hoyo Negro Skeleton In 2007, cave divers in the Yucatan Peninsula’s Hoyo Negro flooded cavern complex discovered the remains of a female human, who they named Naia. She was found in a collapsed chamber, along with the remains of 26 large mammals. 10. I-400 Class Japanese Mega Submarine The Japanese built huge vessels during the war, one of which was the Sen-Toku class submarine. At 400 feet long, this was a mega submarine- it even had a hangar in it with room for three bombers. This hangar was the defining feature of the I-400, and it was the biggest pre-nuclear submarine ever built. 9. US Pilot From WWII In 2018, members of the US armed forces coordinated by The Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) created an Underwater Recovery Team in an effort to recover personnel lost during WWII. Almost 73,000 Americans remain MIA from that time. 8. Sao Jose Paquete De Africa The Slave Wrecks Project (SWP) is a collaboration of organizations and researchers who search for wrecked slave ships in an effort to humanize the horrific trans-Atlantic slave trade and those who suffered at its hands. This long-overlooked yet highly important aspect of global history can also lead to a better understanding of maritime history and African Diaspora. 7. A Sunken Train Graveyard Off the coast of Long Branch, New Jersey, two rare train locomotives that were lost during the 1850’s lie preserved under 90 feet (27.4 meters) of water. A scuba diver named Paul Hepler discovered them completely by chance in 1985 while using a magnetometer to map the seafloor. The device detected two huge metal objects. He didn’t know what they were at first because the visibility was terrible. 6. Mexico’s Flooded Caves When a large asteroid collided with Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula 66 million years ago, it created a 124-mile-wide (200 km) crater in the Earth’s surface and sparked an ensuing megatsunami. How big was this asteroid to cause such destruction? 9.3-miles-wide (15 km), about twice as long as the Las Vegas Strip! Or about two and a half times taller than Mount Kilimanjaro!! 5. WWII Plane One of the sad truths about war is that not everyone makes it home, but what's even worse in some ways are the people who go Missing in Action. In WWII, a F4U-4 Corsair fighter-bomber piloted by U.S. Marine 2nd Lt. John McGrath was reported missing in July 1945 after a rocket attack at Iriomote Jima. 4. W.C. Kimball Last November, shipwreck hunters and divers announced the discovery of the W.C. Kimball, a 40-ton wooden schooner lost in an 1891 gale with four people aboard in northern Lake Michigan. 3. The World’s Largest Cave In April 2019, three divers who had already made worldwide headlines the year before for heroically rescuing a Thai soccer team and their coach from a cave made yet another internationally recognized breakthrough. The divers -- Rick Stanton, Jason Mallinson, and Chris Jewell -- were invited to descend into central Vietnam’s Son Doong cave. They entered an unexplored, waterlogged pit that many believe connects to other chambers. 2. The Clotilda In 2019, as the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade reached its 400th anniversary, SWP announced the discovery of the last-known slave ship to arrive in the U.S., the Clotilda. The find resulted from a collaborative effort between the SWP; the Alabama Historical Commission, and an organization called SEARCH, Inc., which specializes in maritime archaeology. 1. Nyora Last June, after three years of research and plenty of advice from local fishermen, diver Steve Saville discovered the 102-year-old remains of a shipwreck off the Southern Australia coast that claimed 14 lives. #ocean #discoveries #originsexplained #katrina
