A look at the USS Indianapolis 18000 feet below the surface in the Phillipines sea......
Lost for more than 72 years, the USS Indianapolis was found and positively identified in August 2017 by an expedition led by Paul G. Allen on the (R/V) Petrel.
As video and images are transmitted from a state-of-the-art remotely operated vehicle (ROV), Robert Kraft, Vulcan’s director of subsea operations, will provide live narration direct from the R/V Petrel. Emmy Award-winning broadcast journalist Miles O’Brien will host the broadcast and be joined by experts and scientists, including William Toti, retired U.S. Navy captain and final commanding officer of the Los Angeles class submarine USS Indianapolis (SSN-697) to comment on what viewers are seeing, as well as to discuss the history of the ship, its missions and crew, its sinking and the significance of the expedition.
