12:27 pm
cooled off leaving rich lies of mineral deposits for the taking getting too close to alive and putting in danger the saab and its crew but the rewards of exploring in any event are enormous gold kobolds manganese compact and other precious metals is a very very quick it's better for us to do a search for the hottest most feel good and honestly feel. i'm about to see them explore the dragon benfield an area known for underwater volcanic activity. it's near where the antarctic australasian and african take tonic plights me. even if it be down to a dragon feel. food when tao will pilot the first dive one of only two pilots qualified to drive the submersible jour own.
12:28 pm
he's the expert training young recruits like he. i hope for the it will go on forever quickly quickly yes and in that time maybe maybe they can. just use my forty dives they only have two professional pilot and. a lot more than that to me and also you know what i'm into our country so our single is a. responsibility to me even knows that one day soon it will be her turn in the driver's seat for style yes maybe it's a lost interest. so a little faith. finally the ship is in position. the submersible has been checked and food is ready to pilot the first dive. you'll be going like three kilometers underwater. the crew have enough
12:29 pm

12:30 pm
all. only when the area is teeming with life which means they must be close to hydrothermal vents. aware of any lacking of honor the venom at the big freeze there that's the area where the that's the very excited. at last they thought the veins or. do need to be careful as they move the sob closer to the boiling hot water. when you'll was with a walk when was very busy very busy. you needed to construct all your and which. the submersible is built to withstand extreme elements but it has an achilles heel its window is. the water spewing from a hydrothermal vent can reach four hundred degrees celsius. if they get too close
12:31 pm
the plexiglass windows would melt and the sub would implode. but furnishings to get close to the bed to take a sample of its crossed. but there's a problem. that will last that are left to the window was on the first black smoke. another the same time all or right window was was aware america goes to the main. the ocean current has pushed the sob over the stream of a vent the window may not withstand the hate adjuster. us into. he manages to move away.
12:32 pm
but then not out of danger yet. to get the sob. back to the surface i need to drop to hate whites. but only one white with a sense that it's not. a special fos may be left in the ocean. the submersible has seven directional propellers two of these are off with rusty but they designed for steering around the ocean floor north for pushing the south op three thousand maces we have white still attached i was rather bothered because of just two or. cannot fail. come on anyone. the sob barely moves.
12:33 pm
and by now they've been under for almost ten al it's. soon to run out of. the sod stocks rise it's. finally breaks the surface. when the sob is safely back in its cradle the tamed realizes how lucky they ahd to be a lot on the ball coming up one. thirty five but not all of them but what goes through the window more than your head though that walk up.
