The Hunley’s air circulation system didn’t work or was disconnected the night she and her eight-man crew vanished in 1864. The finding suggests difficulty getting oxygen inside crew compartment.

Scientists are at work to preserve the Hunley and remove the concretion (a rock-hard layer of sand, rust, sediment and silt) that covers the inside of the crew compartment.

Aidan is a fourth grader in South Carolina and loves the history of the Hunley. He has seen a replica, studied the Hunley in school, and bought a book on the submarine too.

While sheltering at home, he and his family were looking for fun, educational activities. They decided to make their own Hunley t-shirts. We think they look great Aidan, and you are definitely a FRIEND of the Hunley!
