Tech inventor Elon Musk has developed a “tiny, kid-size submarine†that could help rescue the four boys and their soccer coach who remain trapped in a flooded cave in Thailand.
Musk said the submarine, which is made from the liquid oxygen tube of SpaceX’s Falcon rocket, is small enough to fit through the cave system’s narrow passageways. Musk posted several videos to his Twitter account that show the submarine being tested in a swimming pool.
