Azorian

If you Google search the word "Azorian" you will find a fascinating story of the attempt to salvage a sunken Russian submarine from three miles down in the Pacific ocean. It was made into a film titled "Raising the K-129" and was scheduled to be shown on the Discovery channel in early April but was pulled from the schedule even though the story was public information. The cover story took place in early 1970s when the "cold war" was still in progress.  The C.I.A. reportedly used Howard Hughes as a front to build a vessel to mine the ocean floor and the story goes on from there. Interesting reading and all true. I have a personal friend who worked on the planning team back then.
