Apparently we can track planets 6 gorillion miles away so well that we know the chemical composition of their atmospheres, but we can’t get a tracking beacon on a sub to work to 2.25miles underwater for billionaire passengers…

Like how has some billionaire not built an underwater crane drone with nothing but a hook on it that can drag a crane cable down at high speed to just hook on to something relatively small to retrieve it?
How could that not be done for a million dollars?
Just a couple serious electric propellers and cameras attached to a crane hook run by remote control.

Two and a half miles of cable is very hard to comprehend.

First, the cable has to support its own weight - which is a challenge given the length.

Then the cable will be pulled in along huge and varying currents, making driving it "down" crazy hard without a huge propulsion system - and more weight

Then trying to find a speck of dust in the ocean, without knowing where to look, even harder.

In one video, they describe tethered vs untethered submersibles - and tethering down 12000 feet is crazy hard too.

One engineer looked at the construction and told me that the thing in water - especially ocean water - is going to damage the carbon fiber pretty quickly.

Submersible took at least 5 dives down to 12000 feet already, and the pressure and water are probably really hard on the shell, derating it to a huge degree.

Depending on how the fiber and resin reacted to the water, there is a chance a split developed - just flooding the inside, which is a quicker death. A flooded submersible might be a bit easier to spot via sonar, rather than an imploded one that gets scattered.

A good story to read is the Howard Hughes recovery of a sunken Russian sub. Takes a lot of money and planning to grab something deep in the ocean. Definitely more than 96 hours worth.

You're forgetting the diversity hires.

I actually saw the Glomar Explorer.

Used to drive by it all the time when it was parked in the mothball fleet.

I always thought it was kind of cool to have such an interesting piece of history parked in our back yard.

Crazy how so many people drove by it every day and had no idea what they were looking at.

James Cameron's sub looked much more reliable and the shell was made of steel.

Steel would tend to be much more resilient to multiple dives to depth, I would think.

The fatigue stresses for carbon fiber going that deep is probably hard to estimate - and the water corrosion is just an extra large unknown.

That whole story is fishy as fuck (no pun intended). The name of the vessel is/was Titan, millionaire cargo, redundant redundancies for redundancies, quarter of a million per seat? If you wanted to fake your death, this would be the way to do it.

yeah that whole project was simply an easy money grab.

doesnt make sense, makes money , and now the boss is dead.

deserved it...

or maybe the antlantians took them?

$250,000 per seat, they should be able to do 1 passenger at a time to reduce risk and load on life support systems.

Apparently they have 7 different systems to get the boat to the surface and lost contact before they even got to the btm, so they didn’t get stuck or crash in to anything.

Horrible way to die, but my money is on mechanical failure and they may take years to find them.
Shitty part is there’s 100% chance a nuclear sub could be called in from within an hour away and track it exactly but they’re to focused on running drills to spread poop dick to foreign White countries.

i bet there is something else going on in the background.

like a Mossad hit or something.

Follow the money. What does the billionaire support.

Almost a guarantee they're not left wing.

[ - ] Artificial_Intelligentile 1 point 1.9 yearsJun 21, 2023 02:46:19 ago (+1/-0)

the pakistani fucker?

guaranteed to be a mudslime shitskin financing terror.

i would actually support the mossad hitting that target.

sue your rabbi fuckhead kike

its awesome to have a foreskin.

I'm imagining a kike sub trailing the ship, and hovering just under it.

Then either a couple divers emerge from the hatch, or a minisub with tools detaches, and the Titan is disabled at some point.

The problem with that scenario is that there was communication for over an hour, and that would allow the Titan to drop down to at least 5000 feet, well below human or minisub operating zones.

nah dude, the atlantians snatched them in order to make them their new kings

Nuke subs can't operate any where near that deep

What's the problem with having a business selling luxurious stuff to billionaires? Better that than convincing them of financing some NGO to promote a woke agenda.

[ - ] Artificial_Intelligentile 0 points 1.9 yearsJun 21, 2023 09:49:02 ago (+0/-0)

what makes this sketchy is the subpar technical outfit.

but hey, he killed a mudslime billionaire, who else can say he achieved such greatness??

Latest is banging noises have been heard.

For those following along, there's pretty much nothing in space.

The ocean, on the other hand, is filled with water, an excellent insulator.

Stay is school, kids.

This tells me more about how super real NASA shit is than how retarded submarines are.

The chemical composition of atmospheres is based on the light wavelengths, it's bullshit science because it doesn't know things without light coming from it like the bottom of an ocean.

Honestly, the whole story screams bullshit.

I'm guessing because the billionaire is a Republican donor.

i’m just getting around to understanding a lot of the “space science” is actually fake and gay soyence.

Or track 20 gazillion illegal alien law breakers.
