GRUMMAN PICCARD PX-15 SUBMERSIBLE BEN FRANKLIN GULF STREAM RESEARCH MISSION 32934
This historic film "Thirty Days Beneath the Sea" profiles the mission of the mesoscaphe Ben Franklin, also known as the Grumman/Piccard PX-15. Built by Grumman Aerospace, Ben Franklin was a manned underwater submersible built in 1968. It was the brainchild of explorer and inventor Jacques Piccard who named the vessel after Franklin because he was the first person to chart the Gulf Stream. The research vessel was designed to house a six-man crew for up to 30 days of oceanographic study in the depths of the Gulf Stream. NASA became involved, seeing this as an opportunity to study the effects of long-term, continuous close confinement, a useful simulation of long space flights.
The Ben Franklin was built between 1966 and 1968 at the Giovanola fabrication plant in Monthey, Switzerland by Picc...

This historic film "Thirty Days Beneath the Sea" profiles the mission of the mesoscaphe Ben Franklin, also known as the Grumman/Piccard PX-15. Built by Grumman Aerospace, Ben Franklin was a manned underwater submersible built in 1968. It was the brainchild of explorer and inventor Jacques Piccard who named the vessel after Franklin because he was the first person to chart the Gulf Stream. The research vessel was designed to house a six-man crew for up to 30 days of oceanographic study in the depths of the Gulf Stream. NASA became involved, seeing this as an opportunity to study the effects of long-term, continuous close confinement, a useful simulation of long space flights.
The Ben Franklin was built between 1966 and 1968 at the Giovanola fabrication plant in Monthey, Switzerland by Piccard and the Grumman Aircraft Engineering Corporation headed by Donald B Terrana, then disassembled and shipped to Florida. The vessel is the first submarine to be built to American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) standards. With a design crush depth of 4,000 feet (1,200 m), it was designed to drift along at neutral buoyancy at depths between 600 and 2,000 feet (180 and 610 metres). The 130-ton ship has four external electric propulsion pods, primarily used for altitude trimming. It is powered by tons of lead batteries stored outside the hull. Its length is 48 feet 9 inches (14.86 m), with a beam of 21 feet 6 inches (6.55 m) and a height of 20 feet (6.1 m). Piccard insisted on 29 observation portholes, despite the objections of engineers over the inclusion of potentially fatal weak points.
The vessel began its voyage on July 14, 1969 -- two days before Apollo launched -- off Palm Beach, Florida (where the Gulf Stream has its fastest point), with Piccard as the mission leader and with NASA observer Chester "Chet" May on board. The sub descended to 1,000 feet off of Riviera Beach, Florida and drifted 1,400 miles north with the current for more than four weeks. Accompanied by surface support vessels, it resurfaced on August 14, 1,444 miles (2,324 km) away, 300 miles (480 km) south of Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.
In addition to studying the warm water current which flows northeast off the U.S. East Coast, the sub also made space exploration history by studying the behavior of aquanauts in a sealed, self-contained, self-sufficient capsule for NASA.
During the course of the dive, NASA conducted exhaustive analyses of virtually every aspect of onboard life. They measured sleep quality and patterns, sense of humor and behavioral shifts, physical reflexes, and the effects of a long-term routine on the crew. The submarine's record-shattering dive influenced the design of Apollo and Skylab missions and continued to guide NASA scientists as they devised future manned space-flight missions.
e Ben Franklin made a few more dives after 1969, including the first deep-sea dive for Robert Ballard, the discoverer of the wreck of the Titanic. After running aground on a reef in 1971, the Ben Franklin was sold to Vancouver businessman John Horton, only to languish for nearly three decades on the North Shore. In December 1999, with a sudden decision to either move or scrap the submersible, it was offered to the Vancouver Maritime Museum. After refurbishment, the submersible was placed in front of the museum.
The crew of the vessel included:
Jacques Piccard, the senior scientist on board, as well as the designer and engineer of the vessel. Frank Busby and Kenneth Haigh from the Naval Oceanographic Office. Chester May was a NASA scientist in charge of observing the crew. Don Kazimir was the Chief Pilot, and a former navy submarine officer. Erwin Aebersold was an associate of Jacques' and co-pilot to Don.
Today, NASA continues the underwater tradition with the NASA Extreme Environment Mission Operations program -- known by its acronym "NEEMO." Today's aquanauts are studying equipment and procedures that could prove useful as NASA pursues the new Vision for Space Exploration.
We encourage viewers to add comments and, especially, to provide additional information about our videos by adding a comment! See something interesting? Tell people what it is and what they can see by writing something for example: "01:00:12:00 -- President Roosevelt is seen meeting with Winston Churchill at the Quebec Conference."

The prominent British political observer, Anthony Howard (1934-2010) reported on global political issues for over 40 years for 'The Guardian', 'The Sunday Times' and 'The Observer', and was editor of the 'New Statesman' and 'The Listener'. He received a CBE in 1997. [Listener: Christopher Sykes; date recorded: 2008]
TRANSCRIPT: One of the odd things about being a newspaper proprietor is you don’t have to go into the office to impose your will. Lord Beaverbrook virtually never went into the 'Daily Express' offices. Did everything by telephone and dictaphone. Messages sent to editors and stuff. Mr Rowland, who was the effective owner of 'The Observer' at the time I was there, only, to my knowledge, came into the office, I think probably three times in seven years. Once to entertain a sort of strange Indian mystic on the top floor. Once to a very unsuccessful lunch where he had a row with the staff, and once, I think, when the building was opened, by Princess Alexandra... the new building we’d moved to. But he hardly ever came in. On the other hand, he kept a very firm control.
I didn’t know it at the time, but the man he appointed to be business editor, whose name I unfortunately can’t remember, used to have a supper with Tiny Rowland every Wednesday evening. Tiny Rowland lived in some style in Chester Square in Belgravia, and this man used to go to supper there and get his instructions for the week. And I only found out about that long after I’d left. With the rest of us, he tended to use the telephone. He was a man of exquisite courtesy, and when I was in charge of the paper when Donald was away, you would always get a phone call, and he normally… because he was busy with Lonrho during the week, it normally was Saturday at about… you knew at about 12:15 on Saturday, you’d get a phone call, your secretary would come in and say, 'Oh it’s Mr Rowland, Sir', and he’d say, 'Oh'… I didn’t know him that well in those days, I think he always called me Mr Howard then. And he’d say, 'Oh Mr Howard, is this a convenient moment? You’re not too busy?' I said, 'No, Mr Rowland, perfectly fine. No worry at all'. 'Well, just one or two things I wanted to mention'. And he’d then go into a screed about, sort of, various leaders in the Sudan whose name I couldn’t even spell. I had to try and sort of scribble away, and basically you ignored it. But he would always say, 'And what are you going to lead on? What’s the story going to be?' And so, I suppose, rather much as you knew by noon on Saturday, papers go into the first edition at six o’clock, you told him what was being planned. And he’d say, 'Well, who’s the profile?' I remember once I had to say, 'The profile is Edward Heath'. 'Is what?' Because he hated Heath. And I said, 'Yeah, well, it’s not all that flattering'. 'I should hope not!' Sort of thing. And anyway, he took a very, very close control.
He also had a, sort of, man of affairs, who was his viceroy for 'The Observer', and he would come into the office. He was called Terry Robinson. I think they had a fall-out later and poor Mr Robinson went off to do some other job, but for a time, he was the rising star in Lonrho, and he did come into the office. And would always be a bit of a nuisance, I remember. A man of very limited accomplishments, who was, sort of, an accountant, basically.
Mr Rowland was not a man of limited accomplishments. He knew a lot. He had great, sort of, German charm. He was, of course, German by origin. He was incredibly good-looking, looked rather like George Sanders, a famous film star of the 1940s, had beautiful manners, but was thoroughly sinister. I don’t know. I mean, my view is that what really happened, and this perhaps may be difficult, and I hope I don’t defame anyone, but what happened is that Rowland liked to have people in his power, and Donald Trelford had been very brave at one stage. He’d gone out to Zimbabwe and had come back with a hair-raising report of the massacres going on in Matabeleland and all the rest of it. And I don’t think he got back until actually the Saturday evening, so I was at the seat of custom, and I did say to him, Donald, 'You know that it’s going to hit the roof, this'... because he’d gone out to celebrate five years of independence for Zimbabwe... 'and we all know that the boss, Mr Rowland, is very keen on the Zimbabwe regime, and there is going to be a terrible row'. He said, 'Well, I know, I know. I’ll be able to handle that'. [...]
