Here's some news you can use! I mean, assuming you have a 70-year-old nuclear sub on your hands and you gotta move it somewhere.

Background:

Built in 1957, the K-3 Leninsky Komsomol was the Soviet Union's first nuclear sub - and it's now set to become a museum in the city of Kronstadt, near St Petersburg.

The whopping 352ft-long submarine was paraded through the city on Wednesday on its journey to the site where it will be assembled with the stern and transformed into a museum.

The project has been in the works for years at the Nerpa shipyard.

It really is quite the spectacle!
