The Secrets of the Invincible Submarine Nautilus

S I Z E

{Electra} The Nautilus is a 152 meter-long submarine with a dry mass of 12,000 tons.
{Jean} Wow ! A ship that can dive beneath the waves !
{Jean} What incredible science and technology !
{Nemo} Right

P O W E R

{Electra} The Nautlius is equipped with a gnosis-model...
{Electra} ...room-temperature pair annihilation engine.
{Electra} It separates out the nuclei of the hydrogen atoms found in water...
{Electra} ...and then crashes those protons into the resultant anti-protons...
{Electra} ...annihilating both particles.

{Jean} WOW !
{Electra} And we use an energy eliminator to directly convert that annihilation energy
{Electra} ...into electricity and kinetic energy, so it's totally efficient.

{Jean} It's a...It's a triumph of science !
{Nemo} Right.

OFFENSIVE WEAPONRY

{Title} Anti-Submarine Guided Missles
{Title} and
{Title} Flying Mines
{Title} good against:
{Title} land, sea, air

{Electra} This is what the Nautilus is armed with.
{Electra} She has a total of 40 launch tubes.
{Jean} Wow ! So if we have these...

{Electra} Those Garfish don't stand a chance.

DEFENSIVE SYSTEMS

{Electra} We have 14 HomeGuard units -- our anti-torpedo defense system.
{Jean} Wow ! So if we have these, no torpedo can get through, right ?!
{Nemo} Right.

HULL CONSTRUCTION

{Title} Space Titanium (six-layer honeycomb constr.)
{Electra} The Nautlius' hull is made entirely of the space alloy, Space Titanium.
{Electra} The transparent areas are made of crystalline tektite.
{Electra} The machinery is made of the hardest material anywhere: ultra-hard diamond fiber.
{Jean} WOW !
{Jean} But if it's a ``space alloy,'' then it wasn't made on Earth. How did you get it ?
{Electra} Well, about that...

{Jean} Yeah ?
{Electra} It's a secret.

{Jean} Huh... Hey !
{Jean} What about the rest of the secrets, Electra ?
{Electra} Well, about that...
{Jean} Yeah ?
{Electra} It's a secret.
{Electra} Jean, you should study more and ask fewer questions.

{Nemo} Right.
{Nemo} You understand, right ?

{Jean} Yessir ! Understood, Captain Nemo !
{Jean} See ya !

Now, if you want to build a home-made Nautilus...you can ! J
