THE BATHYSCAPHE 'TRIESTE'
Professor Piccard built a
Bathyscaphe called Trieste
in which the observers were
| housed in a stcel ball attached
to the airship-shaped enve-
lope above. This envelope
was filled with petrol because
being lighter than water it
would bring the bathyscaphe
up to the surface and yet was
incompressible and prevented
the water pressure from
crushing the envelope. By
this means Pref. Piccard
reached a depth of 10,395 ft.
