Young Visitor Explores Submarine Control Room Exhibit

Sunday, January 18th, 2026 at 12:18:33 AM · 2026/Chabot Space and Science Center

A young boy sits at an authentic or replica submarine control station, surrounded by complex instrumentation panels, switches, and mechanical equipment. The entire scene is illuminated in dramatic red lighting, mimicking the combat lighting conditions used aboard actual submarines. The cramped, claustrophobic space is filled with vintage control panels, gauges, and circular port-like features on the walls, creating an immersive historical experience. The child appears engaged with the hands-on exhibit, sitting in what appears to be an actual operator's seat.
