OceanXplorer: "A Floating Research Institution"
If a submarine takes a scoop of dirt and there's no one there to analyze it, is it exploration? Hard philosophical question we don't have to worry about, since our Swiss-army knife of sampling the depths, the OceanXplorer, is also a "floating...
FF Kronprins Haakon – Norway’s ice-class research vessel
The new ice-class vessel “Kronprins Haakon” is one of the world’s most advanced research vessels. This icebreaker-class vessel will work to satisfy both existing and new demands, operating in frozen and open waters at all times of the...
What is the deadliest submarine in the world?
Here's Why The Seawolf Are The Most Dangerous Attack Submarines. There may be only three Seawolf-class submarines but are for sure the most deadly of their kind. As we stated earlier, their quiet operations help them stay untainted to enemy sonars...
Why is titanium used for submarines?
Titanuim was used by the Soviet Union enabling the submarine to dive to greater depths since the hull is stronger and lighter and therefor resists pressure better than steel.
Are Russian submarines made of titanium?
Most notably, their titanium hulls. This unconventional lightweight material made the submarines exceptionally fast – the fastest ever made. Their great hull strength also meant they could dive to much greater depths than then-contemporary submarines.
Is titanium good for submarines?
Titanium is stronger and weighs 33 percent less than steel; the pressure hull can be stronger without increasing displacement; its use gives a submarine a stronger hull for greater diving depth and increases resistance to explosives at lesser depths; and the...

How is a submarine able to float and sink in water?
A submarine uses ballast tanks filled with compressed air and when needed the air is released and takes on water which increases the density making it sink but when the water is pushed out the sub's density is decreased making it float.
How do submarines rise and sink?
In submarines, this is controlled by ballast tanks. When the tanks are empty, the submarine has less mass and it floats like a normal ship. As water is allowed into the tanks, the mass of the submarine increases, the downward gravitational force on the submarine...
How submarine float?
A submarine (or any boat) can float when the mass of water that it displaces (pushes out of the way) is equal to the mass of the boat. This displaced water causes an upward force called buoyancy. Buoyancy acts in the opposite direction to gravity, which would pull the ship down.
Why are submarines called boats?
Yet they are traditionally referred to as boats. The original submarines were very small and manned only when in use, so “boat” was appropriate. But as they developed into larger vessels—and rightfully should have been called ships—the original term stuck.
How many submarines are in the ocean right now?
Today the Navy operates 68 submarines. The force includes 50 attack submarines (SSNs), 14 ballistic-missile subs (SSBNs) and four cruise-missile subs (SSGNs). All have nuclear powerplants.
Can you survive a tsunami in a submarine?
Some small and strong-hulled titanium submarines could survive stronger impacts and tsunami waves, but larger submarines with thinner hulls could be better adapted to long-term survival in a contaminated world.
