In May 2007, we announced the historic deep-ocean treasure recovery of over 500,000 silver and gold coins, weighing 17 tons, from a Colonial era site code-named "Black Swan." In February 2009, Odyssey announced the discovery of Balchin's HMS Victory, one of the most significant shipwreck finds in history. Odyssey has several shipwreck projects in various stages of development around the world.

Odyssey offers various ways to share in the excitement of deep-ocean exploration by making shipwreck treasures and artifacts available to collectors, the general public and students through its webstore, exhibits, books, television, merchandise, and educational programs. Camera crews from JWM Productions were aboard Odyssey's vessels during 2008 "Atlas" search operations to film a 12-part primetime series for Discovery Channel called "Treasure Quest". The program aired throughout the first quarter of 2009 in the US, began airing in the UK in February 2009, and will air internationally in 2009. Odyssey's SHIPWRECK! Pirates & Treasure exhibit is currently on display at Discovery Place in Charlotte, NC after being showcased at the Science Museum Oklahoma, Detroit Science Center, the Museum of Science & Industry in Tampa and in New Orleans.
