I'd love have a 1" slice of that cable on my desk for amuzement. Probably will be like a foot or more in diameter.


You heard the old gag about the most important pieces of camping safety gear?

You need to have a meter of optical fibre with you. Then, if you get lost, you just bury it and then ask the backhoe driver who digs it up for a ride home.


It's not as big as you think. It's about the size of a high-voltage power line approx 3' diameter.


3 feet? or inches?
