Iceberg Alley
The dive under Antarctica was not easy. For starters, it was crucial that the scientists found the best place for their dive. After a long preparation and several test dives, a location called ‘Iceberg Alley’ was chosen. This is where the submarine was launched and the explorers began their exciting adventure.
Iceberg Alley is a deep trench near one of the northern points of Antarctica. This part of the ocean is surrounded by moving ice floes. The largest of these pieces cover an area of half a square kilometer. It took quite a bit of preparation to get the submarine in the right place.
Lucky for us, the entire discovery was captured…
