Both of our nuclear groups consisting of me, Cameron, Eamon, Emmett, Sasha, and Cove got the amazing privilege to meet and interview Daniel Prinns, we were able to get some great insight on nuclear proliferation facts.

Our trip to the Intrepid
by Joshua Olusheki
On the 29th of January, My group members and I went to the Intrepid Museum. Our main focus was on the Growler submarine. We took photos, asked questions, and explored. We looked at many details and even got to see some artifacts. We saw a lot of jets and weapons, and even bunkers people would hide in, in the event of an attack. We learned a lot from veterans who were actually on the Growler submarine. People volunteered to be on the submarine, and about 100 people were on it. These volunteers rarely had fresh air, cramped living spaces, and no privacy. But the upside to this was the quality of their food. These soldiers would get steak and lobster for dinner and had some of the highest quality food. These soldiers were somewhat miserable, but they always looked forward to dinner. The growler submarine was the first submarine to have an ice cream maker. Many people on the Growler didn’t truly know what they were doing whenever they would fire off missiles, and young volunteers who had just got on the submarine would be the ones driving. When the Growler wanted to come up to surface level, there would be a large control panel that was dubbed “the Christmas tree”. The Christmas tree was a large control panel that made sure that everything was able to be opened. The Christmas tree consisted of red and green lights, and every single light had to be green to be open. In summary, the Intrepid museum was a very informative and insightful trip.
