China will soon commission an advanced, multifunctional research ship that recently concluded its first sea trial. The Tansuo 3, or Exploration 3, was jointly designed by researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences' Institute of Deep-sea Science and Engineering, China State Shipbuilding Corp's Guangzhou Shipyard International and other research entities. Its construction started in June 2023 at the shipyard, and the main body was completed in April.
