A few weeks back there was a news release concerning a Swiss
proposal for a solar-powered submarine. Found another short piece today
with a link to a translation of the feasibility study, see http://www.ecogeek.org/content/view/2418/83/.
The report in PDF format while brief in depth, points out that it will take a CHF
10M (Swiss Francs, $9.4M in US funds) to make the project happen. This is
probably a very optimistic number. Thought some of you that are contemplating
solar-powered PSUBS might find this interesting. Hope all the members of PSUBS have a happy and prosperous
coming new year. R/Jay Respectfully, Jay K. Jeffries Andros Is., Bahamas As scarce as the truth is, the supply has always been in excess of
the demand. -Josh Billings |
