The Transatlantic Telegraph Fixed In Fact At Last
The Telegraph to Europe becomes a fixed fact with surveys showing the route about two thousand miles long and depths of around 13 miles. Two vessels will carry halves to meet in the middle and complete the linking of Britain to Newfoundland and Ireland to Galway. The cable uses seven copper wires with gutta percha, tar soaked hemp, and 126 iron wires, capable of ten miles per hour. The project anticipates transmitting messages in under a quarter second and costs may be about half of the subscribed 1,750,000. Future plans include more undersea links, Newfoundland to Moscow, and routes toward India, California, and beyond with a global electric cable network envisioned within years.
