7月26日上午，中國“蛟龍”號(hào)深水潛水器，在第二次下潛測(cè)試中下潛深度達(dá)到5057米，創(chuàng)造了中國載人深潛的新紀(jì)錄。

The home-manufactured Jiaolong， named after a mythical sea dragon， dived to a depth of 4，027 meters with three people aboard in about five hours on July 21. But its attempt to reach 5，000 meters in another dive on July 22 was postponed due to unfavorable sea conditions.
