The upgrade allows Alvin to reach depths of up to 6,500 meters, surpassing its previous limit of 4,500 meters, and puts roughly 99% of the ocean floor at reach for research.

The newly retooled submersible, which has already returned fascinating new findings from Earth’s watery depths, is opening more of the deep ocean to direct human exploration.

“Alvin remains a critical tool and a symbol of enduring curiosity and commitment to understand the world beneath the waves.”

Learn more about the upgraded Alvin!

Remotely operated and autonomous vehicles offer valuable access to the deep ocean, but there is no substitute for direct human observation, write @kenhrubin and @AdamSoule from @URIGSO + Anna P.M. Michel from @WHOI @whoi_CSL. https://t.co/UBsUcoNpMR

[Kenna Harmony Rubin @kenhrubin]

Recently upgraded Alvin can now dive to 6500m. Read our new article about its capabilities, latest #deepsea science discoveries, & new milestones on its science verification expedition 🌊🛠🧪.

Thx to the entire @WHOI Alvin team &

Unusual black smokers at deepest known active hydrothermal vents (Beebe/Piccard, ~5km depth on Mid Cayman Rise) spew extremely Cu-rich fluid. We visited in person on 1st DSV Alvin expedition after major deep diving upgrade. More pics in new article (see below). #Geology #Science

Congratulations @MuddyLobster!

[Julia Guimond @MuddyLobster]

It's been a wildly fun and humbling week. Thankful for incredible mentors who continue to support me and celebrate with me!

[CSL @WHOI_CSL]

Grateful to be able to watch the dives live!

[E/V Nautilus @EVNautilus]

The Sensor for Aqueous Gases in the Environment (SAGE) was created by @WHOI to measure dissolved gases using a hollow-core optical fiber, especially methane and carbon dioxide. During E Mamana Ou Gataifale II, we’re especially interested in using SAGE at #VailuluuSeamount.

[CSL @WHOI_CSL]

Excited our lab is part of this expedition!

[E/V Nautilus @EVNautilus]

#DidYouKnow that Vailuluʻu has some of the densest submarine #hydrothermal plumes observed anywhere in the ocean? The caldera is filled with turbid, murky water created by mixing mineral-rich waters from the hydrothermal vents and surrounding seawater. #VailuluuFactoftheDay

Selected my Cape & Islands Team of the Week for both boys and girls soccer for Week 1 of the season! Check out the story for the @sportsCCT.

[E/V Nautilus @EVNautilus]

How do we sample gases from #hydrothermalvents like the ones at #VailuluuSeamount? #nautiluslive #oceanexploration #oceanchemistry #marinescience #marinetechnology

[E/V Nautilus @EVNautilus]

During E Mamana Ou Gataifale II NA165, we welcome aboard #EVNautilus @WHOI's #AUVSentry: designed to excel in challenging and unexplored environments, collecting crucial data such as multibeam sonar, magnetic readings, and chemical signatures. Stay tuned as we explore!

[E/V Nautilus @EVNautilus]

This expedition is funded by @oceanexplorer, @noaaomao Uncrewed Systems Operations Center, and @BOEM via the Ocean Exploration Cooperative Institute with additional support from @WHOI, @AirSeaHeritage and other partners. Read more in the #blog: https://t.co/MPozBhOBfP

[E/V Nautilus @EVNautilus]

This expedition will have something for everyone – exploring an active undersea #volcano, searching for a lost aircraft of major historical significance, seeking diverse biological communities, and imaging the deepest areas of #AmericanSamoa.

[CSL @WHOI_CSL]

Follow along as our lab participates in this exciting cruise!

[E/V Nautilus @EVNautilus]

We’ve set sail on our NA165 E Mamana Ou Gataifale 2 expedition in #AmericanSamoa! Follow along at https://t.co/nLCfxkdMRo! @sanctuaries @oceanexplorer @WHOI #oceanexploration #nautiluslive #settingsail

[Governor Maura Healey @MassGovernor]

Yesterday, the team and I spent the morning at @WHOI learning about the innovative work happening on the Cape.

From floating robots to marine carbon capture to uncrewed underwater vehicles, the next world-saving technology is being invented here in Massachusetts.

The Alvin submersible is going deeper than ever before...
