Paragraph 1
An American ocean
team has filmed the world's deepest known
for the first time. The ship is a World War II US Navy battleship called the USS Johnston. It was sunk by the Japanese
on October the 25th, 1944 during the Battle of Samar in the Philippine Sea. The wreck now sits on the
floor at a depth of around 6,456 metres. The
crew managed to go down to that incredible depth and darkness and map and film the
shipwreck. They filmed the ship from a
built submersible that can deal with the
of the deep ocean. They discovered it was about 30 metres
than previously thought. The filming took place during two eight-hour
.
