First Images Reveal Shackleton's Final Ship Quest Tangled in Fishing Nets

First look at Quest, the final ship of Antarctic explorer Shackleton

I watched as a remotely operated vehicle captured the first images of Quest, the ship carrying Ernest Shackleton on his final voyage, resting 400 meters deep in the Labrador Sea. While the Royal Canadian Geographical Society's expedition successfully located the wreck, the discovery was marred by the sight of the vessel tangled in old fishing gear, raising concerns about damage to this historic site.

"Suddenly, you see the bow of the ship coming out of the darkness and it emerging, and you start to think about Shackleton."
