A rogue Stalinist KGB contingent hijacked K129 and attempted to launch a one megaton warhead at Hawaii. They came so close as to push the button. They failed to disarm the safety device. It blew the warhead all to hell and sunk the sub. Hot warheads were at the bottom of the ocean. They built the Glomar Explorer to recover this booty from the ocean bed.

It is the Glomar Explorer (now known as the Global Sante Fe Explorer) that has been converted to an oil drilling ship. See web site link for more.

Seems that it could be used for more research. Since that was its original purpose, why not give it to the marine biology people at Stanford hem and let them use it. And isn't the HMB-1 now used as a drilling rig? I am wondering about the present status of the Sea Shadow IX-529.
