MODERATORS
Sadly this new billionaire stunt will likely have no karmic punchline. They plan on using a real sub, not just a glorified plastic tube.
The Titanic lies at a depth of about 12,500 feet (3,800 metres) and there are only a handful of subs currently rated to go there. I'd bet money this new ass-clown is going to treat safety the same way the last one did.
iiuc he contracted a reputable company to build it for him
I doubt they will, considering they probably don't want to die and got a reminder of what recklessness gets you.
They are contracting Triton Submarines to do it, and they look pretty legit.
Reading about their ultra-deep submersibles it does sound like they have the specs for it. I probably wouldn't dare but it doesn't seem like they're fucking around like the lunatics on that Logitech controlled imploder
And you'd be wrong. Triton subs have the only full-ocean-depth commercially rated submersible. It literally has no depth rating, it safe in any part of the ocean. And not just once. Repeatedly.
Check out the stupid mistakes that were made with OceanGate - https://www.engineering.com/story/potential-structural-reasons-for-the-titan-submersible-failure
"You’re remembered for the rules you break. And I’ve broken some rules to make this. The carbon fiber and titanium? There’s a rule you don’t do that. Well, I did.”
There were several people who quit working with OceanGate because their failure would paint all submersibles with a bad reputation. And thanks to morons like you and Stockton, they were right.
Damn, I admit I was guessing after looking at the headlines. Glad to hear someone is attempting to do it safely.
I am familiar with engineering and was amazed at all the corners cut by Oceangate.
Please don't lump me in with Stockton. I may be a moron in many respects but I disagree with his whole approach the endeavor.
Safety rules are usually written in blood and ignored all of them.
