CBC reports an expedition almost 400 metres below the surface of the Labrador Sea shows the first images of Quest, the sunken wreck of the ship that carried famed Antarctic explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton on his final voyage in 1922. Ice crushed its hull, sinking it off the coast of Labrador in 1962.
