With the help of an autonomously controlled, robot submarine, scientists are all set to explore the world's deepest undersea volcanoes, which lie 6 km down in the Caribbean.

According to a report by BBC News, the submarine, known as Autosub6000, will delve into uncharted waters to hunt for volcanic vents.

Once found, the life, gas and sediment around the vents - the world's hottest - will be sampled and catalogued.

A British team aboard the UK's latest research ship, the James Cook, will carry out the research.
