Would such a pod be EMP resistant? How shielding is salt water to EMP? I mean it does carry current and would surround the vessel like a Faraday Cage.

Since its plugged in I don't think it would make much difference.

I know from a radiation perspective water is a good shield - especially with the amounts referred to.

I would assume that the polarization of H2O atoms, it’s direct contact with ground, and the vast volume that it would allow for a very effective EMP resistance as well. Though I’m unaware of any testing on same.
