Yet the Trieste was not a submarine, but rather a bathyscaphe, specifically designed to withstand the tremendous pressure.

然而里雅斯特号并不，而一个深海水器，专门设计来承受巨大压力。

Bathysphere or bathyscaphes such as the Trieste are able to dive to much deeper depths than a submarine because they are spherical, as opposed to the cylinder design of a submarine.

里雅斯特等探海球或水器能够入更深海底，因为球形，与圆柱体设计相反。

To pay homage to Piccard and Walsh, I'd taken this astonishing watch onboard my submersible: the Old Lady – the same prototype that these great pioneers had rigged on their bathyscaphe, the Trieste, in 1960.

为了向皮卡德与沃尔什致敬，我将这只惊人原型腕表，我称之为老太君，一并带入我水器内。这1960年伟大先驱，固定在深海”里雅斯特号“上同一只腕表。

While modern submersibles may even be able of reaching the depths of Challenger Deep, none have tried since the famous expedition of the Trieste bathyscaphe- yet today, surprisingly enough its NASA that is interested in very deep-diving submersibles.

虽然现代水器甚至可能能够到达挑战者深渊深处，但自从著名里雅斯特深海水探险以来，没有人尝试过。然而今天，令人惊讶，NASA对深水器开始感兴趣。
