[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My dad was a Cold War submariner. He the knew the Navy officer who took the Trieste down to the deepest part of the Pacific at 37,779 feet. The capability to rescue something like this from that depth(Titantic)does not exist. Very sad.[/quote] Wow, that’s amazing. I learned about the Trieste in an engineering course - it was cited as an example of overdesign for safety - apparently they designed the hull with a larger than normal safety margin. Just amazing that they accomplished that dive so long ago. Thanks for sharing. [/quote]
