I had a tour of the “Scoop” back in 1988. Well, the forward half. While the Navy is perfectly happy to show off its nuclear submarines, the tour doesn’t extend aft to  the engineering spaces. Wander along the missile tubes and the missile fire control panel? Fine. Hang out in the torpedo room? No problem! Poke your head into Sonar? Have at it. But stay out of the reactor spaces.
