What You Didn't Know About Life On A Submarine

No Windows

Submarines do not have windows or portholes for crew members to look out of.

Having windows or portholes would weaken the submarine's hull and could compromise its integrity and safety. Instead, submarines use a variety of sensors, cameras, and periscopes to gather visual information about the outside environment. These systems allow the crew to navigate, detect other vessels, and conduct surveillance without exposing the submarine to unnecessary risks.
