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??

Don't you know? He hired these people and they filled the sub with pride stuff....that's why they died.

I think his decision was stupid because it’s just jargon to justify lowering overhead costs.

100%... dude was all about saving money at all costs and that is readily apparent through several sources including the one posted earlier about the Titan being the only non-certified sub "capable" of going below 13k feet.


https://www.ctvnews.ca/world/titan-c...nder-1.6451582

The concerns surrounded the company's decision to rely on sound monitoring for cracking and popping noises made by the hull under pressure to detect flaws rather than a scan.

OceanGate told CTVNews.ca in an email on the subject of the design and build of the Titan: "We are unable to provide any additional information at this time."

Marquet says the design of the Titan and the materials used to construct it, concerns him.

"It has this big window and that's a vulnerability," he said. "There are no windows on military submarines, for a reason. So the window itself, where the window meets against the vessel is a vulnerability."

According to the lawsuit, the submersible was designed to reach depths of 4,000 metres, but Lochridge said the passenger viewpoint (window) was only certified for depths of up to 1,300 metres, and in the suit he alleges, OceanGate would not pay the manufacturer to build a viewpoint cleared for 4,000 metres.

Again, since he was piloting these expeditions himself, it's a rather moot point.

I've heard that part a couple of times in reels, but there is a comedian that did a comparison of that song being #1 at the same time "baby it's cold outside" was being cancelled...he went verse for verse...and I laughed and laughed.

either way, I think this is at least a base hit for a boomer like me.
