Thoughty2 | Nobody Knows Why This $4 Billion Ship Was Built

Project Azorian was a U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) project to recover the sunken Soviet submarine K-129 from the Pacific Ocean floor in 1974 using a $4 Billion Ship.

The Hughes Glomar Explorer was a huge technological marvel that had a fascinating origin story. It was built for the CIA for a clandestine project to recover a sunken Soviet nuclear submarine, by the eccentric billionaire businessman Howard Hughes.

The cover story was that it would be used for deep-sea mining, and this fiction prompted research and development by a host of other companies into deep-sea mining. After the CIA mission, the Glomar Explorer was used for deep-sea mining, then converted into a more conventional role as a deepwater drillship.
