was socially awkward. There was also an unfortunate event that occurred with his family. He was thought to be an outcast by everyone, which led up to him becoming an explorer of the deep that hates all mankind. Nemo explains to the crew that his submarine is electrically powered and can perform advanced marine biology research. He also tells his new passengers that although he appreciates conversing with such an expert as Aronnax, maintaining the secrecy of his existence requires never letting them

to keep up with the new, and developing technology. Air technology was still fairly new before the war, but grew rapidly as the war progressed. On the same note, new water vessels were being invented, which allowed to war to grow into the seas. Submarines, U Boats, and other vessels allowed for this shift to occur. Tanks were new and developing during the war also. They were very expensive, but allowed for new advances on the battlefield into other countries’ territory. Lastly, World War II would

Jones had detected the Red October on the sonar and, as it was a new, unknown submarine, they began to follow them, not allowing the Russian to know of their presence. Aboard the Red October the Political officer and Ramius had opened their orders, which were to rendezvous with Captain Tupalov and run drills. When

Rickover was charged with designing, developing and producing nuclear marine propulsion plants in the mid 1940s. By 1955 America was setting to sea its first nuclear submarine, the USS Nautilus. Three years later the Soviet Union caught up with its K-3 Leninskiy Komsomol. From this time onwards the US Navy made all of its ships and submarines run on nuclear power, so by 1990 there were more nuclear reactors powering ships than generating electrical power in commercial power plants. The impact of this

Since WWI to WWII, the German U-boats have always been forced to continually developing and improving to keep up with the pace that the wartime needs. During the Battle of the Atlantic, the German U-boats sank approximately 2, 779 ships with a total weight of 14.1 million tons in Operation Drumbeat. The German navy’s decision to focus on escalating the usage of U-boats in WW2 allowed them to gain tactical advantage and gain a great success against Allied convoy by destroying the Allied convoys’

was quiet. It was like the car was filled with dead people. When we got there I went to the docks downstairs where I was working on a new submarine. The only problem is the door I made is 5 foot tall and I'm 5’ 2” and Gertrude is 5’ 11”. A week has passed and the mansion is still dead quiet from the argument a week ago. Luckily, I finished the submarine and Gertrude and I are leaving today to try and find Atlantis. “Gertrude are you ready?” I screamed up the stairs toward her room.

A common tactic when it came to German U-boats was going in as a “wolf pack” also known as Rudeltaktik. The Germans would send a number of submarines to corrupt a convoy of British ships, mainly those used for shipping. The first admiral to employ this tactic was a German named Karl Donitz. At first, the “wolf pack” tactic was only thought of as a theory because radio technology was not advanced enough to coordinate these attacks. But even after technology improved, Germany had a small amount of

Making Connections One of the most important skills for getting to excellence in NCEA is showing that you can connect the text being studied with other texts or your own life, which includes current events going on as you study.

Connect with Text This should take you 1 to 1 ½ periods of work. Completed In Chapter 2, Phillip says “I was no longer excited

scientific analysis, and he is used to the sea’s surface, not its depth” (Barrow 2032). Not being accustomed to the ocean 's depths, but rather it’s surface provides great conflict for Land having been a master hunter of the sea on a boat and not in a submarine.  Due to their different professions, their automatic biased opinions shape their actions; Aronnax, Conseil, and Ned Land thus takes different stances when it comes to life on the Nautilus, down to the smallest of things like the food to what Captain

One of the greatest aspects of the cruise missile is the ability it has to carry nuclear warheads and launch them from a submarine or surface ship. Cruise missiles launched from submarines have a tactical advantage over
