DSV Shinkai 6500
DSV Shinkai 6500 is a manned submersible that is operated by the Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC). It is the deepest diving manned research submersible in the world, capable of reaching depths of 6,500 meters.
Design and Capabilities
The DSV Shinkai 6500 was designed and built by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries in 1990. It is equipped with two robotic arms that can be used for collecting samples and conducting experiments. The submersible is also equipped with a variety of scientific instruments, including sonar systems, spectrometers, and cameras for capturing high-resolution images and video.
The Shinkai 6500 is powered by a lithium-ion battery and can operate for up to 24 hours on a single charge. It has a maximum speed of 2.5 knots and can carry a crew of three people.
Missions
Since its launch, the DSV Shinkai 6500 has been used in a wide range of research missions. These include studies of marine biology, geology, and oceanography. The submersible has also been used to explore hydrothermal vents and cold seeps, and to investigate the effects of deep-sea mining.
In 2012, the Shinkai 6500 made headlines when it successfully reached the bottom of the Mariana Trench, the deepest part of the world's oceans.
