Taurus I was a state-of-the-art, five-man submersible capable of traveling to a depth of 1,000 feet. It was 31 feet long and cost $3 million to build. It featured a large viewport and a claw to retrieve items from the ocean floor.1

In 1977, Taurus I was used in Project Deep Quest, a psychic functioning experiment led by Stephan Schwartz. The submersible was used to investigate a location identified by psychics Ingo Swann and Hella Hammid as a potential shipwreck site. The project successfully located a previously unidentified shipwreck, with Taurus I pulling up several pieces of the wreck.1
