Robot Antarctic explorer

The mysteries underneath Antarctica will be revealed by the first 6.5 km deep diving submersible boat (Photo: baocantho) of England. In mid-January, Isis submarine submarine will begin its mission to explore the seabed in Marguerite Bay (west of Antarctica) in about 3 weeks.

With 2.7m in length, 2m in height, 1.5m in height and 3 tons in weight, Isis can withstand high pressure in the sea. The 10-kilometer cable system connects Isis to the ' mother ship ', allowing researchers to control the robot and receive the data it collects. Isis is equipped with lights, cameras to create high-quality images, sound underwater navigation systems and 2 remote control arms to collect specimens or install research equipment on the seabed.

The use of Isis allows scientists to analyze the seabed and underlying structure in detail, thereby helping them better understand the activity of Antarctic ice sheets 20,000 years ago as well as the impact of the blocks. ice on the ocean floor and for the animal system here.
