For 30 years, this underwater robot has given researchers a window into the deep sea.

Operating at depths of more than 1700 metres the Ventana equipped with manipulator arms for grabbing, moving, or placing items in the sea. High-definition video and still cameras on the vehicle record images of sea life, geology, and experiments.
