Lost Nuclear Sub USS Thresher: The Tragedy & Deep Sea Wreck

Описание: Hidden nearly 8,400 feet below the surface, USS Thresher (SSN‑593) became one of the most mysterious and tragic losses in submarine history. This video tells the full story of the U.S. Navy’s first nuclear submarine disaster – from launch, to the final dive, to the deep-sea wreck investigation that followed.

In this documentary-style video, we explore:

The design and mission of USS Thresher, a Cold War nuclear attack submarine
The events leading up to her final test dive in April 1963
How a sequence of failures caused the submarine to sink in minutes
The search for the wreck and what was found on the ocean floor
What the investigation revealed about submarine safety and design
How the Thresher tragedy changed the U.S. Navy forever
Using maps, diagrams, 3D recreations, and archive imagery, this video breaks down complex technical details in a clear, visual way so anyone can understand exactly what happened and why it still matters today.
