Russian Submarine Stranded On Sea Floor

SAN DIEGO - AUGUST 5: In this handout provided by the Navy Visual News Service, the sailors assigned to the U.S. Navy's Deep Submergence Unit, Naval Base Coronado, make preparations to load "Super Scorpio," a robotic rescue vehicle aboard an Air Force C-5 Galaxy aircraft, on an emergency rescue mission to the Pacific coast of Russia on August 5, 2005 on Naval Air Station North Island in San Diego, California. The Navy is transporting two of the remotely operated vehicles in an effort to assist the rescue of seven Russian Sailors trapped on the ocean floor in a mini-submarine off the Kamchatka Peninsula. The Super Scorpios and a team of U.S. Navy technicians are to be flown from San Diego to Petropavolvsk, and then transported by truck to be embarked on a Russian ship before making a descent to the mini-submarine trapped on the ocean floor.
