Abstract
Abstract The Mir-1 and Mir-2 submersibles (6,000 m) were built in 1987. In over 30 years of use, the submersibles were deployed in many deep ocean operations for scientific research; for filming with Hollywood, IMAX, BBC, etc.; as well as for dives to solve
special tasks in great depths. In this article, the author discusses two unique operations with Mirs: live broadcast from the Titanic (3,800 m) and the attempt to raise the safety capsule of the nuclear submarine Komsomolets in the Norwegian sea (1,700 m).
