Easter Island

The research vessel Knorr shown anchored off the port of Hanga Roa, Rapa Nui (Easter Island) during an expedition in May 1992. R/V Knorr is probably best known as the ship that supported a team of WHOI and French researchers in 1985 as they discovered the wreck of the RMS Titanic. (Photo by P.E.
