The words "Liberty Bell 7" and a fake crack painted on its side are still clearly visible. Even the singe marks left by the explosives that blew off that infamous hatch door are visible on the video sent back by a remote-control submersible...
...targets in the 24-square-mile area Newport had isolated after 14 years of analyzing NASA charts and photographs. The first object Newport checked out looked like airplane wreckage -- until he made out the words "United States" on the video monitor. Mission accomplished.

But he plans to spend a day looking for it when the team returns to raise...

Parr, in turn, grow into 8-in. smolts C in about two years, and it is these small, silvery fish that make the improbable migration from freshwater river to saltwater ocean. Smolts that survive the trip--and plenty don't--spend four years at sea, feeding...
