[00:00:05] Pilots- this is absolutely amazing, thank you! [00:00:07] WOW!! [00:00:13] amazing [00:00:37] The borders really pretty too [00:00:51] absolutely gorgeous [00:01:00] these pilots are incredible [00:01:26] SEAHORSES! [00:01:33] Around the compass rose [00:01:50] Jeez, what a day [00:02:03] incredible [00:02:06] The colors are really great [00:02:29] great preseravation and really awesome to see so little overgrowth here [00:02:36] lead paint maybe? eek [00:02:54] Good point, Sara [00:03:14] incredible how that blue has preserved [00:03:17] Can we overview back to the left when we're ready? I think it continues a little, but has overgrowth [00:03:44] williamhoffman leaves the room [00:04:23] kaseycantwell leaves the room [00:05:32] hannah, working on that now [00:05:36] nice catch [00:06:09] THank you! [00:06:25] thank YOU! [00:07:38] Silhouette seems likely [00:07:54] signature may be on bttome right [00:08:23] we're panning over now to the bottom right [00:08:32] or, will eventually [00:08:34] stand by haha [00:11:22] lindasunderland leaves the room [00:12:32] panning right to check the mural [00:13:12] heatherjudkins leaves the room [00:14:16] there's a box wer'e zomming in on [00:14:48] :Chart of the Cruises of the USS Yorktown [00:14:58] wild [00:15:03] and of course there's an anemone [00:16:01] Can we go more right? The signature might be further right [00:16:14] going there now, stand by! [00:16:19] thank you Hannah [00:17:19] I have to leave- what an amazing dive- thanks to the pilots!! Hero's of the day :) [00:18:21] will pass on, mahalo heather! [00:18:27] we've got the beeping back on this side, may drop line [00:18:49] heatherjudkins leaves the room [00:20:20] katybell leaves the room [00:21:23] can you all hear us on the conference call line? [00:22:08] Not hearing you on the conference line [00:22:30] Roger, working on it [00:22:32] working on it [00:23:15] we are back [00:23:22] I've got to go as well, thank you for an amazing dive. great piloting and love the historical overview... [00:24:32] Weird constellation of dots in the upper right of the mural. No need to go back to it now, but something to look at in video later. [00:24:35] thanks george [00:24:52] georgematsumoto leaves the room [00:24:57] Yes, hannah, wondering if it's bacterial growth on rusted rivets or something else [00:25:46] Yeah! Rivets in that pattern would be odd, I think. But was also thinking biological or something else? [00:26:43] potentially bacterial growth but the patterns suggests on something manmade, maybe? [00:26:45] so weird [00:27:55] can you guys hear us on shore? [00:28:05] not hearing you [00:29:39] Congratulations to the team on this opportunity to conduct this dive to such a solemn place [00:29:59] thanks megan [00:30:06] thank you! [00:30:20] Feel very fortunate for this opportunity [00:31:17] Good to see you here Megan [00:32:20] It's okay Phil! There is definitely good footage for later looks [00:32:53] Phil can you rerun the video on seatube to check if we covered that section of hte mural [00:33:16] MeganCook leaves the room [00:33:35] I have to go. Thank you for the great historical view. very impressive... [00:34:03] asakomatsumoto leaves the room [00:34:11] Yea, can do pretty sure we got it Brian. [00:34:31] williamhoffman leaves the room [00:35:06] agreed on the stacked wings here [00:37:11] williamclancey leaves the room [00:38:43] MeganCook leaves the room [00:40:13] hannahfleming leaves the room [00:41:45] valfinlayson leaves the room [00:42:31] williamhoffman leaves the room [00:50:30] MeganCook leaves the room [00:53:31] williamhoffman leaves the room [00:57:28] MeganCook leaves the room [00:58:02] valfinlayson leaves the room [00:59:22] MeganCook leaves the room [01:01:35] sarakahanamoku leaves the room [01:02:05] MeganCook leaves the room [01:07:52] chat-admin leaves the room [01:11:02] philhartmeyer leaves the room [01:14:34] williamhoffman leaves the room [01:22:37] there was a label above the gauges [01:24:09] shoot, we issed your message sorry Katy! [01:24:21] it was an engraved label/sign [01:24:51] williamhoffman leaves the room [01:33:31] williamhoffman leaves the room [01:41:03] samcuellar leaves the room [01:41:27] sarakahanamoku leaves the room [01:41:33] philhartmeyer leaves the room [01:41:33] briankennedy leaves the room [01:48:04] valfinlayson leaves the room [01:55:55] siph [01:58:16] chat-admin leaves the room [02:02:08] suddenly got darker and harder to see [02:07:57] Serrivomer? [02:14:05] nemertean? [02:26:52] katybell leaves the room [02:32:27] Solmissus? [02:33:48] Halicreatidae? [02:47:56] Flota?

Sam is a rockstar and got my account working for today. [21:04:32] We need to get him a tech support t-shirt he's been chasing those threads seemingly all day yesterday haha [21:07:10] annenunn leaves the room [21:08:42] Hello all! [21:09:14] Hi Willie! [21:09:26] Well hey there! [21:11:43] Hey Willie, hey Jeff- [21:13:39] Hello everyone [21:16:11] chat-admin leaves the room [21:16:41] philhartmeyer leaves the room [21:19:27] more or less on bottom. about 50 meter from the yorktown [21:20:39] Good to see you on the chat Chuck, have you called in yet to the phone line [21:20:50] It's the same number [21:20:57] chareshaberlein leaves the room [21:22:04] Aloha all! Looking forward to today's dive. Like yesterday I will be communicating the chat to shipside in case the party line isn't working for folks and/or you prefer to communicate via text. [21:25:42] Possible car? https://imgur.com/AZW86Lg [21:26:27] Similar hub caps [21:26:45] Wow, that ridge was massive [21:26:56] Lots of similar evidence to yesterday in the seds for a massive impact [21:28:56] Thanks Anne and Willie for the car info! Looking forward to seeing if we can id the car today [21:29:43] Full credit to the Reddit thread Sam mentioned! [21:29:58] Doing a little more reading about it now. [21:30:59] Regarding the anemone that was on the metal debris, we don't know enough of fauna at these depths to even guess on what order its in. [21:31:08] Looks like a holothurian in frame now? [21:31:21] pilot change [21:31:31] Is that a holo or a piece of debris [21:31:38] annenunn leaves the room [21:36:30] williamhoffman leaves the room [21:37:14] annenunn leaves the room [21:38:45] hannahfleming leaves the room [21:42:55] hannahfleming leaves the room [21:43:14] annenunn leaves the room [21:43:44] williamhoffman leaves the room [21:43:46] christopherkelley leaves the room [21:45:41] definitely looks like a tire on the rear [21:46:24] How do I mute myself on the teleconference line? [21:46:40] Hannah if you mute your phone (if on cell) that might be a good workaround? [21:47:23] I agree Phil, it looks clearer today. [21:47:35] @Sara, oh duh! Thanks!!! [21:47:53] williamhoffman leaves the room [21:48:09] Hello all! [21:49:04] trunk is definitely open [21:50:00] is that the glass sliding out of the back above the tire? [21:50:21] Aloha e asako! [21:50:24] damage on the rear door looks like the outter panel is gone [21:51:36] Hub caps are good! [21:51:46] Hello Sara! [21:52:16] annenunn leaves the room [21:54:53] Here on the ship folks are thinking it may be a FOrd Super Deluxe with Wood panneling and a softer top option. Certainly a lot of good evidence to sift through post-dive [21:56:05] Those high res images will be helpful. I'm hung up on those curved chrome trim pieces. [21:56:37] lindasunderland leaves the room [21:57:11] I'm hopeful we can get into the #3 elevator for a god look....or even better, a license plate [21:57:25] Perhaps a Plymouth sedan (P11) add that to the list of possibilities [21:57:51] think we lost you on the line [21:58:09] willie, on the party line? [21:58:21] annenunn leaves the room [21:58:52] are you able to hear us shore side? [21:59:07] you dropped out [21:59:13] roger, working on it [21:59:47] back up [21:59:55] can hear you on the conference line [22:00:11] awesome, thanks! [22:00:18] dropped again [22:01:22] yep [22:03:56] Just a biology note. A couple of minutes ago, there was a stalked tunicate on the upper ledge that looked like it was in the genus Culeolus [22:04:08] YAY thanks Chris for the tunicate ID!!! [22:04:25] At least a couple of the anemones on the gun are hormathiid [22:05:40] Seems like we lost you guys. [22:05:45] down again [22:06:06] Nice ID Chris, I did my best in SeaTube. [22:06:22] looks like elevator #3 is open, at least partially from this view [22:06:28] the differential corrosion inside the barrel is in interesting [22:07:21] we're back it sounds like [22:07:32] sorry phil! [22:08:22] https://www.history.navy.mil/research/library/oral-histories/wwii/battle-of-midway/a-doctor-remembers-the-battle-of-midway.html [22:08:35] ^Great account here [22:09:48] or fire at low angle [22:11:10] Jeff I wonder too about the difference in corrosion on the outside of the barrel as well. [22:11:40] annenunn leaves the room [22:11:44] I think the red olothurian that just went by was Enypniastes sp [22:12:28] phil I think a lot of the corrosion differences we are seeing is due to galvanic couples [22:12:30] YAY!!! is that genus monotypic? That's what I read last night but not sure [22:12:38] if there have been any updates to our knowledge [22:12:51] I'm not sure either Sara but I will check [22:12:56] This barrel is showing a lot of similar corrosion properties [22:12:57] Thanks Chris! [22:13:40] Cool thanks Jeff/Sam [22:14:07] No, there are at least 5 species in that genus [22:14:37] sarakahanamoku leaves the room [22:15:14] annenunn leaves the room [22:15:33] Thanks Chris! Google scholar has been nonfunctional for me the past few days so I'm going off of some terrible google answers [22:15:37] Sorry, it is monospecific. The other species have been discontinued so the only current one is Enypniastes eximia [22:15:46] Oh gosh, taxonomy [22:15:49] Okay.... [22:16:18] mahalo! [22:18:00] Thanks for bringing that up. I didn't know it was monotypic either. [22:19:18] You bet! [22:21:41] another swimming holo, perhaps the same thing [22:21:50] sarakahanamoku leaves the room [22:22:27] looks like a fire hose hanging down [22:24:24] This guard was also unbolted to remove it [22:24:33] Good catch Hannah [22:26:11] Another tunicate, can't tell if its stalked or not but if so, another culeolus [22:27:12] Yep, its another Culeolus sp [22:27:17] I remembered a stalk ! yay! [22:32:49] williamhoffman leaves the room [22:35:02] That’s heavy duty mechanical cable on that winch [22:35:07] agreed [22:35:25] with a eye splice [22:36:55] williamhoffman leaves the room [22:38:00] Can't really id the swimming shrimp from a couple of minutes ago. Probably in the family Aristeidae [22:38:40] thats a valve handle [22:38:50] Chris thoughts on the worm? [22:39:02] (if it is a polychete? or is it an isopod?) [22:39:12] I missed the worm, sorry. [22:39:19] No worries :-) [22:41:31] These could be serpulid worm tubess [22:42:38] I liked your scientific terminology, Sara, "nightmare fuel" [22:43:28] They could be sabellid worms as well [22:43:43] Sorry, I don't know my worms very well [22:44:01] Thanks hannah and thank you Chris for the potential IDs! I also do not now my worms well so I appreciate any help [22:44:44] they do look like seep worms but most of them also look empty [22:45:38] Yes george good catch - I wonder if these are the remains [22:45:49] I can't image seep worms surviving on a shipwreck. I think they are serpulids [22:47:00] There are no active seeps or vents within a 1000 miles of this location [22:47:48] Thanks chris for checking that and I like the serpulid ID [22:48:22] understood but have you ever seen an aggregation that thick not on a seep? [22:48:52] georgematsumoto leaves the room [22:48:58] Well, I struck out again. Google AI says that there have been some seep worms documented on shipwrecks. I guess I'm learning alot [22:49:22] hannahfleming leaves the room [22:49:22] williamclancey leaves the room [22:49:54] oh gosh! okay!! that's amazing. Maybe they disperse from shipwreck to shipwreck? are there other environments they are found in that are closer to this location? [22:53:34] annenunn leaves the room [22:54:04] christopherkelley leaves the room [22:55:45] Looks like a cord still plugged into an outlet there? [22:57:39] chat-admin leaves the room [22:57:51] Cool right? Noticed that too how does that stick around during wrecking event. [22:59:41] Does anyone have thoughts on if that net is original to the ship or more modern debris? [23:00:23] hereʻs the article on shipwreck ecology I was referncing https://academic.oup.com/bioscience/article/74/1/12/7479881 [23:02:24] Hannah weʻre gonna zoom in on the netting [23:02:32] I would think historic seeing how it's tangled up, i don't think it would be snagged this deep, would it? [23:03:16] yes, also likely wouldnʻt survive settling this intact [23:03:33] Holes look too big for fishing netting [23:03:41] Safety netting? [23:03:45] Yea, cargo netting> [23:03:48] ? [23:03:49] looks like wire rope to me [23:04:17] Thanks, all! [23:05:55] You can see "York" on the stern at the bottom of this shot! [23:06:42] firefighter gear - Brian [23:07:48] williamhoffman leaves the room [23:10:41] CO2 extinguisher [23:11:05] Firefighter husband [23:12:55] jeffreymorris leaves the room [23:12:55] lindasunderland leaves the room [23:13:21] saw what looked to be similar worm tubes yesterday on the wood of the flight deck - but not the same density [23:16:35] !! [23:17:05] Big difference in density of anemone community here, wow [23:21:18] I don't know if you've talked about it but there are some papers about scour around shipwrecks, I guess induced currents create it. Perhaps could explain the anemones, too? [23:21:31] (sediment scour) [23:23:20] I'm pretty sure the scour papers were on the patterns that were created after the initial sinking and settling of sediment. I can't remember the authors but can prob dig them up if of interest [23:23:25] Hi Jim!! [23:24:15] Dont't think its current scour. The sediment is still lumpy there and it should be smoothed out, shouldn't it? [23:25:35] agreed, but the narrower gap between the ship and the bottom does imply that there will be a slighter greater velocity of water movement - more movement, more food for filter feeders. [23:25:56] Good point. I was thinking potentially induced flow of the wreck could explain the anemones. But the currents here are probably much lower than the paper(s) I'm thinking of [23:25:59] Potentially - though the seds here are very clay rich so Iʻd expect those larger mounded features might be somewhat resistant to light current flow [23:26:21] we're in the process of repositioning a bit and I believe we will be looking fotwards the #3 elevator next [23:26:26] For example when I wash them it takes a LOT of force (or, better, detergents) to break up the clay clumps [23:26:55] So the light currents this deep may not accelerated enough to do so [23:27:31] but enough to feed anemones! [23:27:35] ?! [23:28:08] Yeesh, the anemones are such an enigma. WHY do they love to set up deep inside of the ship? [23:30:52] perhaps the wreck is acting like a wing and the water has to flow faster on the bottom than the top (ie Bernoulli effect) [23:32:57] something with numbers in the elevator [23:33:07] seeing that too [23:35:51] what's the shiny metal in the left background? [23:35:56] There's marston mat all over the place too [23:36:07] philhartmeyer leaves the room [23:36:19] Theres a tail to the bottom left too [23:37:41] Oh thank you Hannah! [23:37:50] lindasunderland leaves the room [23:38:32] lasers? [23:38:40] trying [23:40:15] why are landing gear retracted? [23:42:06] Do y'all see the tail at the bttom left of the image? I'm not crazy? [23:42:20] Ok, see wheel now so wells are empty and the wheels were down. [23:42:37] Quick google on data plate locations, so may not be completely accurate - Data plates on an SBD Dauntless are typically found riveted to the aircraft's cowling sections and oil tank. For example, the Military Aviation Museum's restoration of the SBD Dauntless shows a data plate on the aft upper edge of the lower right-hand accessory bay cowling. Another data plate is visible on an original oil tank, located just to the left of the seam [23:43:52] Thanks, Annie! [23:44:10] sarakahanamoku leaves the room [23:44:21] Not sure I could identify a "aft upper edge of the lower right-hand accessory bay cowling" in this jumble, though! [23:45:49] Hannah sorry to lose the tail thread for a bit, weʻre hoping this next survey can get us more detail there [23:47:08] No worries, Sara! I'm pretty certain, but there is also definitely good footage for further examination [23:47:40] Thanks Hannah, weʻre gonna try to get there if we have the range [23:51:56] If that's an oil tank, could have an identifying data plate. [23:53:14] wait, nevermind. Wrong type! [23:53:25] Drop or external fuel tanks? [23:53:30] williamhoffman leaves the room [23:53:38] Nah, I just learned something today! [23:54:17] davidjourdan leaves the room [23:57:56] philhartmeyer leaves the room
