When I first started as a maritime archaeologist,
you would go out in a boat, you would take

00:00:09.960 --> 00:00:14.490
a look at a spot on the land and another spot,
and if they lined up right, you’d figure

00:00:14.490 --> 00:00:18.480
you were more or less over a shipwreck that
you plotted, you’d jump into the water,

00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:20.600
you’d swim down, and there it would be.

00:00:20.600 --> 00:00:23.480
And you might share that with the other diver
that was with you.

00:00:23.480 --> 00:00:28.950
But these days, increasingly we’re using
new technology, satellites that tell you exactly

00:00:28.950 --> 00:00:35.450
where you are on the surface, robots, highly
sophisticated cameras, the internet, to broadcast

00:00:35.450 --> 00:00:41.910
what we do to a global audience so that you,
the visitor, the person that’s looking on

00:00:41.910 --> 00:00:48.780
can participate in discovery, exploration,
and most recently, even the excavation of

00:00:48.780 --> 00:00:51.320
a shipwreck in some cases thousands of feet
deep.
