You will journey to the Titanic aboard the MIR I and II submersibles, deep-dive vessels capable of reaching ocean depths of 20,000 feet. Housed aboard the mothership Akademik Keldysh, the two MIR submersibles are part of a group of only five deep-diving vessels available to the world's scientific community. They are specifically designed to withstand the enormous pressures that exist in the depths of the ocean. Each MIR's habitat compartment is 7 feet in diameter, accommodating three persons. Air pressure inside the habitat remains at a constant one atmosphere and during the dive the temperature will drop to around 54 F (12C).
