RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Undersea telescope...

Great Site!
It brings back lots of memories. I led a clean room dive team that serviced
the internals of the IMB detector located 2000 feet underground in a road
salt mine east of Cleveland,OH.  I took a photo of one of my divers in front
of the PMTs that appeared in National Geo in 1988, just after the neutrino
blast from a supernova star had been detected.  Worked that project for
about ten years.  Good to see the info on the newer detectors and recognized
lots of names from the IMB years.  Thanks for passing along that link.

Garmt Devries of the DUTCH JULES VERNE SOCIETY (where one of my webpages is)
tells me he recently got his degree in physics, and is working on a project
called ANTARES: it's an "undersea telescope" that detects neutrinos.  This
joint venture is being conducted by an international group of physicists and
engineers, and is employing a small submarine as part of their underwater
operation.  He gave me the URL to a website about this, if anyone wants to
check it out:
