@china360_: China has completed major upgrades to its veteran marine scientific research vessel, Dong Fang Hong 2, enhancing its control, power, and laboratory systems. The refit includes automated trajectory planning, an advanced dynamic positioning system, and a consolidated stern laboratory for immediate sample testing. A newly installed high-capacity folding crane will increase the ship's operating water depth from 6,000 to 10,000 meters. The vessel has been in service for 27 years, completing 160 major scientific expeditions across 600,000 nautical miles. #latestnews#chinatech#chinaship #deepseaexploration#expedition
