OceanGate Expeditions and The Cape Eleuthera Institute will embark on a Bahamas deep-sea survey of the twilight zone of the Exuma Sound using the manned submersible Cyclops 1.

Beginning in October 2017, with multiple weeks of diving each season over a year, the exploration aims to uncover new details on deep-sea sharks and the variety of species that inhabit the waters off the Great Bahama Bank Continental Shelf.
