WWII 'Ghost Ship of the Pacific' USS Stewart Rediscovered Off California Coast

The USS Stewart, a US Navy destroyer that served both the US and Japan, was found in exceptional condition at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean.

The USS Stewart, a US Navy destroyer, was intentionally sunk during a naval exercise in 1946 and has now been found 3,500 feet below the ocean's surface.
The ship, known as the 'Ghost Ship of the Pacific,' is the only US warship to have served under both American and Japanese flags during WWII.
Advanced sonar technology and autonomous underwater vehicles were used to locate the wreck in the Cordell Bank National Marine Sanctuary.
The vessel's hull is largely intact, providing a unique opportunity to study early 20th-century naval architecture and technology.
The discovery involved a collaboration of multiple organizations, including Ocean Infinity, the Air/Sea Heritage Foundation, and NOAA.
