I like Sir Branson. I think it's great that he's dedicating so much of his time and resources to making awesome adventures, whether they be in the stratosphere or under water, more available for everyone else. ]]>Jan 29th 2010 12:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/virgin-goes-underwater-with-necker-nymph-aero-submarine/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/virgin-goes-underwater-with-necker-nymph-aero-submarine/No doubt he's definitely one of the cooler "rich" people in the world. I think a lot of other wealth folks could learn a lot from him. He's investing his money to help create technology now to benefit the masses. Although it may be expensive now, I'd expect it to get cheaper with time.

I also like the fact he's just plain crazy.]]>Jan 29th 2010 12:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/virgin-goes-underwater-with-necker-nymph-aero-submarine/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/virgin-goes-underwater-with-necker-nymph-aero-submarine/
Yeah... the picture is awesome... I hear he was in fact saying something about this "new" technology... "giant Lasers" or something like that...]]>Jan 29th 2010 2:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/virgin-goes-underwater-with-necker-nymph-aero-submarine/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/virgin-goes-underwater-with-necker-nymph-aero-submarine/Jan 29th 2010 3:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/virgin-goes-underwater-with-necker-nymph-aero-submarine/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/virgin-goes-underwater-with-necker-nymph-aero-submarine/Jan 29th 2010 12:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/virgin-goes-underwater-with-necker-nymph-aero-submarine/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/virgin-goes-underwater-with-necker-nymph-aero-submarine/ iPad.

Much closer to a hydroplane than an aero submarine since the vessel planes through water, not air. Just, as in a conventional hydroplane, Sir Richard's latest toy generates forces on a hydrofoil as it is forced through the water.

Why not call it a submersible hydroplane? (That's what it is.)

Of course, possible candidates would be:
submarineplane
subhydroplane
Branson's folly (not specific enough, though)]]>Jan 29th 2010 2:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/virgin-goes-underwater-with-necker-nymph-aero-submarine/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/virgin-goes-underwater-with-necker-nymph-aero-submarine/Actually no, I totally would :D]]>Jan 29th 2010 2:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/virgin-goes-underwater-with-necker-nymph-aero-submarine/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/virgin-goes-underwater-with-necker-nymph-aero-submarine/Jan 29th 2010 2:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/virgin-goes-underwater-with-necker-nymph-aero-submarine/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/29/virgin-goes-underwater-with-necker-nymph-aero-submarine/Ya, you're right, he is Ironman
