News of the world

This blog is in the first case meant for myself so I don't forget interesting stuff. So you will find lots of useless topics, but there will certainly be also readings that might interest you. Lots of the items will go about my family, things we do or don't do but also about software, cars, gadgets, music, etc ... .

The return of Jaws

Unfortunately it's not a sequel of the famous movie starring Roy Scheider and Richard Dreyfuss but a shark-like submarine made for investigating shark behaviours.

The shark submarine has been made by Fabien Cousteau, the grandson of the famous oceanographer and filmmaker Jacques Cousteau. The basic idea behind the shark is to become one with the animal to better understand it.

For more information and photographs go to the Wired article : Cousteau Sub Mimics Great White.
