It's a submarine, -70C means it's been frozen into a colder iceberg than exists on this planet. I am curious if this is a mitigation for repeated stress cycles

I am curious if this is a mitigation for repeated stress cycles or an analogue of metallurgical properties in deep ocean water.

- myself248 5y agoMy assumption is that very cold temperature conditions may be a proxy for some other set of conditions which are classified. Do cold temperatures mimic something like neutron bombardment, in a way that would be metallurgically useful?
- QuarterReptile 5y agoThe short version is, no, there is almost no chance that this is related to anything exposed to a relevant radiation flux.
