Inconsistency in this article: "Trieste II incorporated the original Terni, Italian-built sphere used in Trieste" but the Trieste article on Wikipedia claims: "This sphere (dubbed a "bathysphere" by Piccard) provided just enough room for two persons and was built by the Krupp Steel Works of Essen, Germany." So, where was the sphere actually made, Italy or Germany?

  • I think it was designed in Switzerland, cast by Krupp in Germany and fitted out in Italy but we need a source. Ex nihil 01:28, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
