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??

I was watching CBS Sunday Morning when they aired that segment on the sub. I remember telling the wife that is so cool. Good thing I'm not a billionaire, it might have been me in it.

Joking aside it gives me the willies thinking of those people if they are on the bottom and still alive knowing what the outcome is going to be.

I wonder if the sub uses Logitech mouse and keyboard combo? You can game on those I hear but it's difficult. I'm not sure on steering a sub 3 miles down but I'd assume it's just like a first person shooter.

Mouse sub up and down and the Logitech keyboard wasd for movement.

Problem solved.

The CEO of the company and a bunch of rich people confirmed on board. I guess when you’re a billionaire, they have all been to the same places. Wonder if it’s to brag to your fellow billionaires?

How many are really Titanic freaks? It has to be for bragging rights to their fellow billionaires.

I'm guessing that it was way harder to get an airtight seal that could handle the extreme pressure with an actual door. Doesn't necessarily excuse it, but I doubt they just left it off for no reason.

I would imagine very little panic.

You don’t do these things without careful reflection of what happens if something goes wrong and how you feel about the afterlife. At a certain point you just start telling each other all your secrets until you all fall asleep.

It’s like none of you have ever died before.

Shift key plus wasd. When gaming you hold down the shift key to run or for extra thrust.
