Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Dome Blowing

Greg,
Not really a conspiracy theorist, just a stirrer.
When my dome was blown, a cloth was clamped between the acylic disc & bottom
plate for the dispersement of the high pressure air. The air leaked through the material
where it was clamped & they couldn't get enough pressure to blow it so they had to re
do the process & glued the material down. I presume the glue served as a seal.
I am wondering whether in this process the bottom of the acrylic disc had less friction
holding it, causing it to feed more easily round the heel of the dome. I'm trying to work
out where they went right. I own the clamping plates so may try blowing a dome in future.
Regards Alan

Only if the Soviets (who tracked US spacecraft on radar) were in on it too.

So was the film of the Americans landing on the moon a fake? Was the only real moon walk

performed by Michael Jackson??

It's a prop, guys. Not a submarine. Even real subs get the movie magic trick. Remember the Perry wet sub in the James Bond movie? It was a real sub, but they ran it on a wire to get the shot they wanted.

Stew,

 

Both pics looked PhotoShopped to me, but possibly are not.  The forward diving planes don't show at all in one photo, and it doesn't look like it's sitting low enough in the water for them to be submerged.  I think it's a static movie prop that might float but doesn't really move under its own power much less submerge.

 

Looks bad, but I bet Git Kraken can take it.

Looks fast J

 After looking at the pic for a while? ive found a few discrepancy?s?

 The hull of the sub looks to be sitting out of the water? yet there are no ropes/crane wires etc  that I can see in any of those pics?

 The rear dive planes have no control surfaces on them!

 

In this picture  Can anyone else see something submerged under the front of the hull??? Directly under the port side front dive plane?

 

The front dive planes are LARGE! And look like they do move? and it has a snorkel? Im wondering if this is a positively buoyant semi submersible? or even one of these?
