I’ve always disagreed with those who say you can’t form an attachment to a piece of inanimate machinery (like a car). Clearly the Deep-Sea News personnel see things like I do.
I can only imagine the loss they feel.

Poor ABE, he will be missed. It is amazing that we have such technology that allows us to make advancements in deep sea studies. How much would a unit like this cost or be worth?

May she rest in peace. Until the day she gets rediscovered by chance? Stranger things have happened. Like the camera footage of the recently discovered Air France Airbus wreckage in the Atlantic.

I’m amazed at some of the discoveries that have been made on the bottom of the ocean. What a shame to see such a great piece of technology lost. I can only imagine what insights this machine bought to humankind. One of the great mysteries of the world, the bottom of the sea is able to be understood a lot more by us because of great human inventions such as ABE.

Has technology changed much for these type of machines over the last 15 years?
