In this case, the technologies required are totally different. There is no relation whatsoever. No one has developed a precise, yet far reaching method to search our 2 to 3 mile deep (on average) oceans of water that surround our planet for what amounts to an insignificant speck relative to this gigantic world we live on. It is a daunting task, and one I do not see them EVER accomplishing.
No kidding. They couldn't even find Jaws, and that thing was chomping swimmers every few minutes.
