NATO and Russia dock under the sea

The BBC have been putting out a lot of military related videos since the whole Libya situation occurred.. Anyone else noticed that?

Anyway, this lucky reporter got to go under the sea and witness, first hand, the first ever docking between a Russian vessel and a NATO vessel. Hard to believe that this has happened 36 years since the USSR and the USA docked their own spacecraft in orbit.

Really interesting video none the less.

Neither country has military or nuclear secrets on their space craft, at least not usually. Subs on the other hand are about as top secret as you can get.

Oh yeah.

I can see why it hasn't happened till now. International cooperation is seen as necessary in space.

Thought it was pretty neat that a reporter got to go down there to witness the moment.
