Last night on the Discovery channel, Canadian version, I was lucky enough to watch a show called "Daily Planet." On it was a fantastic bit about the 212A. Even luckier they post it the next day for free:

Too bad the quality isn't as good as TV but worth a watch if you like the 212A. :up: :cool:
Wow...Excellent workmanship there...Hopefully the hydrogen power supply thing will catch on....I have always not liked the idea of mini nuclear disasters waiting to happen beneath the oceans.Great video. :up:
On a side note there anyone know if hydrogen is a safer/feasible alternative to nuclear on a large scale..such as to power our cites?

On a side note there anyone know if hydrogen is a safer/feasible alternative to nuclear on a large scale..such as to power our cites? Hydrogen fuel cells are really like Batteries. They need something else to charge them; in this case they need to have pure hydrogen loaded in to them along with O2. Hydrogen is very common but it tends to be bonded to other elements like oxygen (water) or carbon (Hydrocarbons) and you need to expend energy to extract the Hydrogen. Now if you are using a renewable power source like some types of nuclear power or gathering hydrogen gas (say from a Gas Giant like Jupiter which is 86% Hydrogen or even better Saturn which is over 93% Hydrogen) Hydrogen can be cheap, but getting it from say oil or water it gets expensive. :know:
Intresting thk you for the reply T.
