Across the Atlantic in a Human-Powered Submarine

Inventor and entrepreneur Ted Ciamillo is planning to paddle across the Atlantic Ocean later this year in a one-man submarine he designed.

The sub will use a pedal-powered propulsion system based on a dolphin’s tail. (It’s already available in a swim-fin model that can propel swimmers fast enough to nearly leap out of the water like a whale.)

If he succeeds in making the 2,300-mile trip from Cape Verde to the Caribbean, Ciamillo may also help open a new window in marine science:
