Submarine tour of the Titanic goes missing

[radar8756]

Wouldn't they be more visible from the air, if they were all white?

Everything I painted was Haze Grey

 

[BigRed]

Looks confirmed to me.


Some of those questions, I want to ask the reporter if they're that stupid, or they assume their readers/watchers are that stupid.

I've always wanted to ask "Why do you have all these folks standing behind you to say nothing?"

Virtually every press conference these days ,regardless of topic, involves a bunch of stand ins in the background.

I guess they hadn't reached that point yet.

I’m still having trouble with the thought that someone as careless as this guy apparently was, made it as long as he did.

“I wanna dive to 12,500 feet, but this hatch is only rated for 4,500 feet, hmmm, ya know what, **** it, it’s probably fine”.

 

[Hoosier Carry]

Plenty of stuff out there they did look for.
Figuring out why.


EVERY sunk US sub has had people look for it. With varying degrees of success.
They still look for WWII subs.

They still look for history because there is money behind it.

At least it's people working for their pay.
Better than paying money for people to do nothing.

Everything I painted was Haze Grey

Haze gray
Deck gray
Equipment gray
Machinery gray
Bulkhead gray
and dozens more

Supposed to make you look more important.

Oh. And this points out that when they say... we hear noises...
IGNORE IT.

Just about EVERY sub sunk has had noises reported by search crews.
Reports from the search for the Thresher reported the same thing.


There is NO WAY these people made noises.

Somebody on another board made a comment about all the false signals and noises and crap from the MH370 hunt.

Sadly my guess about the titanium end caps being the most identifiable remains was right, plus that big tail fairing. Not sure on the actual size of the sub debris field but it sounding spread out is consistent with failing at 9000ish feet.

Nothing fails slow at that depth. It went instantaneous. My morbid engineer brain is interested in seeing images of the pressure hull remains, I wonder if there are clues there. Like an intact viewport? I know it was a big focus item, but my suspicion is still a material failure in the carbon fiber or the interfacing.

interfacing is always a weak point

Imagine anyone working for Oceangate will be leaving it off their freshly posted resumes

They captured a homosexual whale off the coast of California.




He was biting off the ends of submarines and sucking out the seamen.

Probably too busy changing their names and appearances to worry about job hunting right now.

 

[actaeon277]

Can you imagine working with an ex employee, and he says... "Well, at my last company we did it THIS way."


Oh really?

I shows status by how many ass kissers you have kneeling to you.

CBS and BBC reporting that the Navy had the implosion event in SOSUS or whatever the current equivalent.

I guess if you're time is up implosion would be the best way to go down there.

Yeah. I hoped they'd be found on the surface, but at least they didn't suffocate or die in an o2 fire or something. No time to know anything was wrong.

 

[Sigblitz]

Well, think of all of the plane crashes where little to nothing is left of the jet, but they eventually do figure out what went wrong in most cases.

Speculation. If they dig long enough, they can find something to blame it on, just to satisfy those who want to cover their a$$.
