The timing couldn't be more meaningful - this week we explored Superior Maximus, the deepest point in the Great Lakes. Now we're carrying that momentum into "Hidden Below"!
Join us TOMORROW at 10am for a one-of-a-kind Earth Day Special! FISH! ROBOTS! and much much more!
It’s a beautiful day here at Superior Maximus! We’ll be diving to the deepest depths of the Great Lakes at 11:00am ET. Join us live: inspiredplanet.ca/hidden-below...
With just one day to go until our livestream, meet Kiyi, our ROV, affectionately named after the mysterious deepwater fish found only in Lake Superior.
As we attempt to reach depths of more than 400 metres, Kiyi will be our eyes in the immense darkness, exploring a world few people have ever seen.
⚠️ SCHEDULE CHANGE ⚠️
Lake Superior has decided we'd better wait a day.
Due to rough weather conditions, our #SuperiorMaximus ROV dive to the deepest point in the Great Lakes has been postponed to:
Sunday, June 7 11:00 AM ET

Sixteen years after we landed on the moon, explorers reached the deepest point in the Great Lakes. Forty years later, we’re going back.
We’re teaming up with @hiddenbelow.bsky.social on June 6 at 1 PM ET to send an underwater drone down to livestream everything we see: GreatLakesNow.org/HiddenBelow
