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??

(It was some sort of deep-earth mining scenario in the problem statement.) It was kind of surprising how quickly the chain became a huge weight issue that impacted the power needed to get the chain back up, and the stresses at the top of the chain.
How was the bailing wire and JB Weld involved?

Well, nothing. That's the button. It's streamlined.
Even the button is cheap.

Your basic billet button with an L.E.D ring that every off-brand auto accessory manufacturer makes. We've used them in some of our Mustang builds for push button starts etc.

My wholesale cost on that button is like $17. Hell, you could probably find it all day on Amazon for less.

You know there are planes that you can do high knees on right?

Hah, yeah, that or just wanting to cut costs.

Tbh, I'd have to imagine the target audience for this sort of thing is 50-year old white dudes.

Like, if there's anywhere I want to see a 50-year old white dude, it's helping me at Home Depot or on a cramped submersible heading 8 miles below the surface 'cause paying $250,000 to do something like this is THE whitest shit ever.

EDIT: Just Googled it and the Titanic wreckage is only a little over 2 miles deep.

I thought yesterday it was on a 30 minute interval, so question would be is that still the case today. No idea what they do if they know where to go. I would assume if they had any ability to get down there with a vehicle that could potentially help anything, they'd already be doing it. In the movies they have lots of toys like this. Maybe they should call up the crew of "The Meg".
