How do submarines get air?
First, oxygen must be pumped into the vessel as the crew uses it up by breathing. Oxygen is typically supplied to the submarine from pressurized tanks. A computerized system monitors oxygen in the air and releases fresh oxygen as its needed by the crew.
Do submarines have Internet?
To connect with terrestrial technologies, the nodes communicate with gateway buoys on the water's surface, linking to the above-sea internet via cellular networks or satellites. Still, undersea broadband is a way off, due to the low data rates.
Cornelis Drebbel
Submarine / Inventor

How long can a submarine stay underwater?
Diesel-electric submarines may remain immersed for up to 48 hours without recharging their batteries, but they should surface to operate a generator. Nuclear-powered submarines in the army may remain submerged for extended periods of time.
How deep can a submarine go?
