Hardy and his of ficers are busy charting their find ings. Two sister ships, thn Dis coverer and the Kxplorer, work with the Surveyor. . Ships Work Steadily : i For weeks the vessels steam slowly to and fro over the sunw) expanse, through fog. rough seas and dangerous tides. Submarine fiiting devices of the woiid war, adapted to a mar velous accuracy in the fathometer and an adaptation of radio are the Surveyor's principal instruments. The fathometer employs sound waves to rend depths virtually in stantaneously withottt stopping the s.hip. The device sends a sound out from an oscillator on the bottom of the ship, 'and u micliroproiie picks up the echo as the sound cniiies back reflected I mm the bot tom. Knowing the speed of sound in water, the depth can be calculated hy the elapsed time for the echo to return. The Pioneer makes a depth reading every 200 feet in water about :?U feet deep. Device Marks Bottom The radio device marks the posi tion of the bottom whore Hie depths are read. It . is called the l. A. It., which is short for radio acoustic range finding. A small bomb is exploded behind the Sur veyor. Sensat ive hydrophones in the water hear shore pick up this sound, and transmit il hy land lines to shore staiinns. Automatically the shore station sends a radio signal back to (he vessel. Although these stations are 20 lo ait miles apart, and the Surveyor ofien out of sight of land, the underwater sound wave and re turn radio signal enable her offi cers to slick u pin in her position as accurately as it the two signals wore measuring reds reaching out from the shore.
