    Okay so it's not really a C.I.A secret anymore. But at one point it was a very covert mission:

    Anyone know what this is?

    I'll give you a hint...

    It's actually a UBER SUPER AWESOME SPY SHIP used for 1 mission and that was to retrieve a fallen Soviet Submarine and get intelligence info. Which at the time (The Cold War) was definately a high priority.

    They called it the Glomar Exployer.

    Anyways the stort behind the whole ship is really an interesting one but I think Wikipedia could explain it better then I could. Definately a good read if your into random trivia. :lol:

    The best part is...How exactly they got to keep this big huge ship a secret and out of the eyes of the public. :dry: Pretty sneaky C.I.A...

    :grin: Anyways thought this story was worthy of a little chat. Specially for those of you who are bored and want to learn about a C.I.A conspiracy. Or who already know about it..

    BTW, I learned it from the Uncle John's Bathroom Reader...Learn while you expel waste! YAY!
