Two Indian aquanauts achieved a landmark deep-sea dive on August 5–6, 2025, reaching depths of 4,025 m and 5,002 m in the North Atlantic aboard the French submersible Nautile. Raju Ramesh and Commander (Retd) Jatinder Pal Singh completed these unprecedented dives as part of preparations for India’s Samudrayaan Deep Ocean Mission. This milestone equipment operation marks India’s entry into elite club of nations capable of manned deep-sea exploration and paves the way for the indigenously developed Matsya 6000 submersible, expected to carry a crew of three to 6,000 m by December 2027.
