Creator's Key Takeaways
the ship's propulsion system is both diesel electric and gas turbine
the gas turbines on a cruise ship operate in a similar fashion to airplane engines
these structures on the coral princess and Island princess's funnel are not actually the engines
gas turbines are cleaner and more efficient than diesel engines but also far more expensive to fuel
