The upstream live videos are interesting to watch. One of the ROV's hooked a cable link to a hook on a basket with something in it on the sea floor which was then pulled up to the surface. A few minutes later, the ROV began an ascent which took about 14 minutes. As it was going up, at a depth of around 3,000 ft, there appeared to be a lot of sea life. They looked like large worms of some kind. The visible light began to change from black to blue at about 500 feet.

The robotic subs operated by Ocean Engineering International are interesting to watch.
