Tourist(s) missing in submarine while trying to reach the Titannic

https://www.ctvnews.ca/world/u-s-coa...-sub-1.6446841


Quote:
A search and rescue operation is currently underway to locate a submarine that went missing during an expedition to the Titanic.
The U.S. Coast Guard was looking for the submarine Monday morning after it disappeared during the expedition from St. John's, N.L. The infamous 1912 wreck is located more than 600 kilometres southeast of the province in the North Atlantic Ocean.
The trip to the Titanic was being run by OceanGate Expeditions, a U.S.-based company. It uses a five-person submersible named Titan to reach the wreckage 3,800 metres below the surface. OceanGate's website advertises a seven-night voyage to the Titanic for US$250,000 per person, or approximately CA$330,000.
"We are exploring and mobilizing all options to bring the crew back safely," an OceanGate spokesperson said in an email to CTV News. "Our entire focus is on the crewmembers in the submersible and their families."


Those tours are a series of five eight-day missions to the Titanic with the money raised by tourists going towards Titanic research. Posts on social media show the ship launched from the St. John's area last week.

Did they really have 5 people in this?? Or do they have a larger version??

If it's at the absolute bottom where the Titanic is, I'm unsure there's anything that could be done.

Now, if it's still deep down (say 8-12K feet but not at the absolute bottom and not trapped) there are somethings they could do theoretically with the ROV such as trying to deploy a floating device or some cable to the surface underneath it, but even that's not necessarily a guarantee and is still very challenging.

I believe they've done it a few times before without any catastrophes.

Not with this particular sub. They had used another one called "Cyclops" or some shit like that.

I like the theory that it's an electrical system failure. Seems the most likely scenario considering the shoddy, cheap craftsmanship and the failure of their communication devices and such.

I'm guessing the Xbox controller ran out of battery. We've all been there.
