Over seven days, under exceptional weather conditions, the interior spaces of the wreck of HMS Terror were scientifically and systematically explored for the first time. Parks Canada’s Underwater Archaeology Team conducted seven dives and explored 20 cabins and compartments on the ship, in search of uncovering a better understanding of the fate of the Franklin expedition. The team obtained clear images of more than 90 percent of the lower deck of the ship, which includes the living quarters of the crew.
