Is this for real?
Unfortunately it was photoshopped
No, it’s a photo from a 2020 BBC article with the controller photoshopped in it https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20201202-deep-sea-mining-tracks-on-the-ocean-floor
This source says it’s from 2015.
“The image featured in the post is an altered version of one that was taken in 2015 as part of a project studying the impact of deep-sea mining activity on aquatic life. The 2015 photo shows marks left in 1989 on the floor of the Pacific Ocean, but no controller.”
The sentence below that links to their source as well.
Oh okay, thank you for correcting. I guess I didn’t read it well enough before linking.
