Robert Ballard, known for discovering the wreck of the Titanic, located the USS Yorktown CV-10 in 1998. The USS Yorktown CV-5, on the other hand, was found in 1998 by a different expedition led by the research vessel Petrel. Both aircraft carriers played significant roles in World War II, but Ballard's work specifically focused on the later ship, CV-10.

Enterprise Hornet and Yorktown were historical aircraft carriers used by the United States Navy during World War II. The USS Enterprise (CV-6) was one of the most decorated ships in the war, known for its significant role in major battles such as Midway and Guadalcanal. The USS Hornet (CV-8) is famed for its participation in the Doolittle Raid and the Battle of Midway. The USS Yorktown (CV-5), also crucial in the Pacific Theater, was involved in the Battle of Midway before being sunk in action.
There have been several USS Yorktowns. The previous one was sunk in World War 2 by the Japanese. The current aircraft carrier USS Yorktown was a replacement 60 years after that one sunk.

He is also authoritative on the subject being a Naval Officer. See link below. Thanks for using answers com and wikianswers.
