The first submersible was planned. but never built by Englishman William Bourne in 1578. The first practical one built was David Bushnell's 'Turtle' in 1766.
Ballard had significant leeway in using the Alvin submersible to reach the wreck of the Titanic. The submersible allowed for deep-sea exploration and provided the necessary technology to navigate the challenging underwater environment. However, factors such as funding, environmental conditions, and the technical limitations of Alvin influenced the extent of that leeway. Ultimately, Ballard's expertise and planning were crucial in successfully utilizing Alvin to locate and explore the wreck.
A submersible has to be used, as it has been built specially to withstand the tremendous pressure in the deep ocean depths.
