Question 9 • * FL-2001340-Environmental Science Sem 2

Which of the following is not true concerning the Nereus?

Answer
A
It is able to dive deeper than any other man-made vehicle.
B
It will be used to explore previously unreachable areas of the ocean.
C
It is a combination automated and remote-operated vehicle.
D
It has the capacity to carry two crew members.

Explanation

Nereus was an unmanned hybrid vehicle: it could operate autonomously or be controlled remotely. It was designed to reach extreme ocean depths and explore areas that had previously been difficult to access. It did not carry people, so the claim that it could carry two crew members is not true.
