Just in time for the 50th Jubilee in 2010, this video tells the story of Mariana- the dive by Jacques Piccard and Don Walsh in 1960. Original film footage and audio interviews, one of the last of Jacques Piccard gave, the movie has a documentary touch.
Mariana
Fascinating! what an achievement…
What about communication in this time and era? Will supersonic mobile pick up the signal?
Great video! James Cameron is planning to repeat such a dive and go to the bottom of the Marianas trench, nearly seven miles below the surface of the ocean.
