Science with The Blunt Letters

S5 Ep 11: Submarines: Death Tubes or Deep Sea Dreamboats?


Listen Later

This week on The Blunt Letters, Micaela, Elle, and Jerbil dive headfirst into the surprisingly fascinating world of submarines! What starts as a look at the tragic OceanGate disaster and the new Netflix documentary quickly turns into a deep-sea rabbit hole of science, history, and a whole lot of “Wait, submarines do what now?” From how these underwater beasts actually work to the wild ways humans have tried (and failed) to explore the ocean, the crew uncovers just how strange and incredible this technology really is.
