This 5-man mini-sub brings the deep ocean’s treasures within reach

by Larra Morris

Under development by the OceanGate company since May of this year, the Cyclops submersible is a five-person submarine designed to perform a variety of underwater tasks. That includes scouting for mineral and gas deposits, biological specimen collection, and salavage operations, all for less than the cost of existing ROV platforms.

The Cyclops measures 18 feet long, 11 feet wide, and just over 7 feet tall. It weighs 19,000 pounds on land, which is quite svelt for a manned sub, thanks to its unique, 7-inch thick carbon fiber hull construction.
