Project Azorian: The CIA’s Audacious Deep-Sea Salvage

About this episode

Join us as we dive into the 1974 covert mission to recover a sunken Soviet submarine. From SOSUS detections of K-129 to the Halibut’s deep-sea search and the Hughes Glomar Explorer’s moon pool, we explore the engineering genius, the cloak-and-dagger cover story, and the Cold War stakes behind one of history’s boldest underwater operations.
