This multimillion dollar expedition took 2 deep sea submersibles to the bottom of the Great Blue Hole in Belize to perform scientific research. OutsideInnovation personnel provided deep sea submersible piloting and engineering services among numerous other support tasks. The expedition was lead by Aquatica Submarines and was the first time since the 1970’s (with Jacques Cousteau and the Calypso) that the Blue Hole had been explored on this scale. The primary sponsors for the project were Sir Richard Branson, Fabien Cousteau, and the Discovery Channel.
