Adrift 500 Feet Under the Sea, a Minute Was an Eternity
The NYT has a detailed story on the tragic accident on the submarine USS San Francisco that saw it crash at high speed into an undersea mountain earlier this year, apparently because of problems with undersea mapping technology used by the Navy. If I’m reading the NYT article correctly, the Navy appears to have blamed the crew, despite clear problems with its maps and the approach taken to get proper maps and trip routing information to crews.
