I remembered this article if you're interested in how we lay cable underwater today. It's even more wild since it's fiberoptic cable. https://www.theverge.com/c/24070570/internet-cables-undersea-deep-repair-ships

Jesus fucking christ, you don't know what JFC stands for? /s

You should look into how it was done. Weirdly enough, it's pretty similar to how we lay cable now.

No worries, we can't all know everything all the time.

The first transatlantic telegraph cable was laid down in 1854 and radio waves weren't even theorized until 1873... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transatlantic_telegraph_cable
