wreck recovery

Wreck recovery refers to the process of locating, salvaging, and restoring shipwrecks or aircraft that have crashed. This involves a combination of underwater exploration, engineering, and specialized technology to safely retrieve valuable artifacts, recover human remains, and, if necessary, clear hazards from shipping routes or the environment. Wreck recovery is important for historical preservation, maritime safety, and environmental protection. The process often requires collaboration between governments, archaeologists, and salvage experts to ensure that it is conducted respectfully, especially when human lives are involved, and to protect cultural heritage.
