The Ocean Exploration Trust recently captured detailed images of three iconic World War II shipwrecks from the Battle of Midway, including the first up-close photos of a Japanese aircraft carrier since it sank in 1942. The team spent 14 hours surveying the Japanese Imperial Navy’s Akagi and two other aircraft carriers, the Kaga and the Soryu, providing a unique glimpse into the Battle of Midway and the damage inflicted on the ships. The group plans to continue its exploration of the seafloor in the coming months.
