2 MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford. Oregon, Sunday, August 24, 1953 'Bathyscaph' Latest In Underwater Craft San Diego (I'PD The! bathyscaphes potentialities as Navy's newest vessel, a : both a research tool and a strange-appearing diving craft i deep-diving submarine rescue known as a "bathyscaph," ar-j vessel, rived in San Diego harbor Two-Man Crew yesterday for re-assembly. ! The blimp-shaped vessel Having little in common i carries a two-man crew in a with' the conventional "sub marine," the bathyscaph has been termed the Navy's ver sion of a space vehicle. It was spherical gondola beneath its main tanks which carry 23, 000 gallons of high-octane aviation gasoline 30 per cent specifically designed to ex-1 lighter than water, giving it plore the unexplored depths of the ocean. The Italian-made craft, dubbed the "Trieste" after the name of the town where it was manufactured, was purchased recently by the Navy from Swiss scientists for use in oceanographic studies off the coast of South ern California. Can Descend Three Miles Although it will be used at first for basic scientific re search involving acoustical and biological investigations of the Pacific waters in this area, the bathyscaph poten tially is capable of diving to depths of more than three miles below the surface and some scientists have described it as the logical forerunner of future deep - diving subma rines. Long range objectives of the vessel call for exploring ocean environment at great depths and to evaluate the its buoyancy. The ship carries 10 tons of iron pellets for ballast to help control its descent and ascent. Dives are accomplished by bringing water into the tanks, thus compressing the gaso line and reducing buoyancy, while the iron pellets are re leased at the rate of a ton for each 3,000 feet of depth. In other words, it is the under water equivalent of a lighter-than-air craft, much like a blimp, operating in reverse. Capable of remaining sub merged for a period of 48 hours, the bathyscaph is equipped with two small win dows for wide-angle viewing, a camera with elecronic flash, floodlights, an echo-sounder, telephone and numerous in struments and controls for re search equipments and oper ation. It may be propelled horizontally by electric battery-powered motors and two propellers. i iniiiiw i i in ii i i i it i i i 1 m I . u Jl Alt wot p" J PREPARE FOR TRIP The six Medford teen-agers, above, were to leave today to attend a week-long Hi-Y, Tri Hi-Y Leadership Training conference at the Young Men's Christian Association Silver Creek Camp in Salem.
