See it: US Navy releases images of bridge resting at the bottom of the river
On Tuesday morning, the US Navy released images of the bridge resting at the bottom of the Patapsco River using sonar technology. Officials used an imaging tool called CODA Octopus to obtain the photos. The tool is being used by divers working on the scene.

Visibility is limited to one to two feet because of the amount of mud and loose bottom along the harbour, the US Army said on X.

“Divers are working in virtual darkness because when lit their view is similar to driving through a heavy snowfall at night with high-beam headlights on”. Complicating matters, divers need to be guided by detailed verbal directions from operators in nearby vessels.
