Watch this! Great documentary about Azorian.
Azorian: The Raising of the K-129
Trailer
The technical difficulty of this project has been compared to going to the moon. The Glomar Explorer still exists, but, sadly, the specialized lifting machinery has not. If you watch reruns of EMERGENCY on MeTV, occasionally the ship appears in aerial views in episodes where they go out on a Coast Guard helicopter.
(This should be moved back to the other side so more people will see it - very interesting historical topic.)
