Summary

Description

On October 8, 1957, USNS Mission San Miguel ran aground on Maro Reef while running at full speed. While the U.S. Navy safely evacuated the 42-member crew, the ship was lost -- making it the largest ship, at 523 feet, lost in what is now Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument. In September, 2015, though, a team of NOAA scientists and research partners aboard NOAA ship Hiʻialakai discovered the resting place of the ship! Here you can see the auxiliary helm of the ship, which is resting on its port side.
