Summary

Photograph shows the Jauréguiberry, a pre-dreadnought battleship of the French Navy at Mudros (Moudros) on the island of Lemnos, Greece during the Gallipoli Campaign of World War I. (Source: Flickr Commons project, 2013)

Beginning in ancient times, humans sought to operate under the water. The legendary origins of the submarine stretch back to 332 BC with a tale about Alexander the Great being lowered into the sea in a glass barrel to study fish. The submarine concept was thereafter consigned to the backwaters of history for some 1,800 years. This collection presents various submarines: from small and simple to nuclear-powered underwater behemoths.
