🎥 What were we doing in that video?!

The thrusters are mounted on the outside of the submarine for propulsion 🚤💨, but the computer is housed inside the hull because it isn't waterproof 💦💻.

So, how does the computer inside the hull 🥜, communicate 🗣 with the external thrusters without getting wet ☔️?

Yesterday, we fed our thruster cables into cable penetrators with superglue.

Then, we injected epoxy 💉, the "clear liquid," which is a polymer that can be used for waterproofing, into the cable penetrators, so that when they're inserted into the hull no water will leak into our submarine🚰.

Problem solved - the computer can be connected to the thrusters and the connection is waterproof.
