Underwater Drone Explored the SS Edmund Fitzgerald — What It Captured No One Expected

#EdmundFitzgerald #Shipwreck #MaritimeHistory Underwater Drone Explored the SS Edmund Fitzgerald — What It Captured No One Expected In May 1976, a U.S. Navy underwater drone called CURV-III dropped 530 feet into Lake Superior to film the wreck of the SS Edmund Fitzgerald, lost with all 29 men aboard. What its camera found on the cargo hatches pushed investigators toward blaming the crew, and that verdict has been argued over ever since. You'll see what the robot actually recorded, how the Coast Guard, the safety board, and the shipping industry each read the evidence, and why a lowered load line, a hold with no flooding gauge, and missing watertight bulkheads change the meaning of the captain's final words. It's the full story, told through the official records. #EdmundFitzgerald #Shipwreck #LakeSuperior #GreatLakes #MaritimeHistory #Documentary Edmund Fitzgerald, SS Edmund Fitzgerald, Edmund Fitzgerald wreck, Edmund Fitzgerald sinking, Edmund Fitzgerald underwater footage, Edmund Fitzgerald drone footage, what sank the Edmund Fitzgerald, CURV-III, Lake Superior shipwreck, Great Lakes shipwrecks, Great Lakes history, shipwreck documentary, maritime history, maritime mystery, Ernest McSorley, Arthur M.
