Action Bottom Chains Fitted Mine Move Passes Simon Submarine Submarines Under Water Wheels

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history when the innovative "Simon Lake" submarine was put to the test in action. Fitted with wheels to navigate the sea-bottom, this American marvel is seen passing through a treacherous harbour mine field with ease. The year is 1915, and this cutting-edge transport vessel is making waves both above and below water. The image showcases the incredible engineering feat of Simon Lake's design, as chains dangle from the submarine's frame and wheels churn up sediment as it moves forward. The historical significance of this moment cannot be understated, as submarines were still a relatively new technology at this time. As we gaze upon this scene from over a century ago, we are reminded of the bravery and ingenuity of those who dared to explore uncharted waters. This photograph serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of underwater exploration and transportation. In today's world where submarines are commonplace, it is important to reflect on the pioneers like Simon Lake who paved the way for modern advancements in maritime technology. This stunning image truly encapsulates a pivotal moment in naval history that continues to inspire awe and admiration for all who behold it.
