JAGO (German research submersible)

JAGO is the only manned German research submersible. The submersible and the crew K. Hissmann and the pilot J. Schauer is located since 1. January 2006 at the GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel. The former owner was zoologist Hans Fricke from the Max Planck Institute for Behavioral Physiology in Seewiesen, Bavaria. JAGO can dive up to 400m and can carry one pilot and one observer. It can probe organisms, rock, gas and liquids. Furthermore it can be used as rescue and recovery vehicle for the northern baltic sea area. Due to the multidisciplinary connection between the GEOMAR and the Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel, scientists from the Cluster of Excellence "The Future Ocean" have occasionally access to the submersible.
