Photo #: NH 97218
Wreck of USS Scorpion (SSN-589)
"Debris located on the bottom of the ocean floor in the
area 400 miles southwest of the Azores Islands where the Scorpion
was located."
Quoted from the original photo caption, which bears the date
30 January 1969. This photograph was probably taken when Scorpion
was located by USNS Mizar (T-AGOR-11) in October 1968,
on the Atlantic Ocean floor 10,000 feet deep.
Official U.S. Navy Photograph, from the collections of the
