Project Azorian: The Sunken Secret | Episode 1 – The Cold War Bunker
In 1968, a Soviet nuclear submarine vanished in the Pacific Ocean. What followed was one of the most audacious and secretive missions in CIA history: Project Azorian. This is the story of how the U.S. government built a billion-dollar ship, created a fake mining company, and tried to steal a sunken enemy submarine from 3 miles beneath the sea—all under the nose of the Soviets.
In Episode 1:
The mysterious disappearance of K-129
The Cold War stakes that led to a top-secret salvage mission
Howard Hughes, billionaire cover stories, and oceanic espionage
The engineering marvel of the Hughes Glomar Explorer
And the origin of the famous phrase: “We can neither confirm nor deny…”
Listen in for deep-sea drama, spycraft, and the first steps of a mission that redefined secrecy and shaped Cold War history.
