Antlantis or Alien Life?..... :O
NASA us working on a engine that is plasma propelled and the cool thing about it is that it will get us to mars in two months not eight.
Almost all of the cables that allow the internet to exist run under the sea. Without the technology developed to map the sea floor, it would be nigh on impossible to lay the cable in a safe manner.
But what type of physics of pressure would we need to test the cable strength.Native Vacuum Pressure.
Well even cables running across the ocean floor isn't going to last forever. The Atlantic is constantly growing while the wires don't. At one point, that cable will snap and there will be some serious bawwwing then.
PROTIP: Even if there is a coherent thought running through your head, don't just blindly assume everyone else will understand that post you just shat out onto the thread. Explanation helps you know.
PROTIP: Even if there is a coherent thought running through your head, don't just blindly assume everyone else will understand that post you just shat out onto the thread. Explanation helps you know.The cables aren't layed out in a straight line...there is hundreds of miles of 'slack' in them. Besides...the Atlantic is growing at a paltry rate. It's akin to worrying that my toenails might get to long for my socks...you just don't need to be concerned with that. The real daily threat to undersea cables is the damn fishing trawlers...they regularly get their equipment snagged up in the undersea lines...guess what they do with the cable when they pull it up? At least there are organizations working night and day to repair the damages...and there is tonnes of redundancy built in.
