On January 19 2011 the UK's iconic research robot submarine Isis was involved in an accident that significantly damaged the vehicle. The loss of this important Remotely Operated Vehicle or ROV was both shocking and devastating for the UK marine science community which had come to rely upon and appreciate the huge scientific rewards that this amazing deep diving vehicle can offer.
Once the funding from the Natural Environment Research Council was approved in June 2011, it was a race against time to ressurect Isis to meet its demanding schedule.
This video is a time-lapse of the rebuild.
