Titan Submersible

While I do feel badly for the five people that lost their lives and for their families who have to endure the loss, can we take a minute to recognize that doing things willingly that contain an obscene amount of risk should not place others in peril?  Then add in the financial burden of the cost for search and rescue.

And besides the inherent dangers of even attempting it there is no need to waste any resources to try and recover their “bodies”, because even though they haven’t specifically come and said it, there won’t be “bodies” to recover. 

By the time it reached the Titanic wreckage, the Titan submersible would have been facing a pressure of between 375 and 400 atmospheres.
The water pressure at 12,500 feet (3,800 meters) below the surface at the site of the Titanic wreck is roughly 400 atmospheres or 6,000 pounds per square inch. The sudden change in pressure during an implosion would cause immediate trauma to the human body, essentially disintegrating it, in other words break it up into small parts. What’s left of them should be left in their internal grave with the other victims of the Titanic.

I bet the US Navy could tell you exactly when their sub imploded. 

 

PATUXENT RIVER NAS, Md. – U.S. Navy anti-submarine warfare (ASW) experts are replenishing their supplies of advanced multistatic air-launched sub-hunting sonobuoys that work together with other sonobuoys to detect, pinpoint, and track enemy submarines.

Officials of the Naval Air Systems Command at Patuxent River Naval Air Station, Md., announced a $181.9 million order Wednesday to ERAPSCO in Columbia City, Ind., for 126,000 sonobuoys for airborne ASW operations.

Sonobuoys are air launched expendable, electro-mechanical ASW acoustic sensors designed to relay underwater sounds of ships and submarines. Sonobuoys enable Navy ASW forces to track potentially hostile submarines operating in the open ocean and in coastal areas that could be threats to Navy carrier battle groups or other forces. Information from these systems can help enable precision attacks with air-launched torpedoes.

Yes, as soon as they lost communications with it on Sunday.

”Sensors operated by the Navy detected the likely implosion of the Titan submersible hours before the U.S. Coast Guard publicly shared that it had gone missing — a revelation that means a five-day search that sparked round-the-clock media coverage may have been futile from the start. 

The Navy detected "an anomaly consistent with an implosion or explosion" in acoustic data taken from the same area where the Titan went missing, a senior Navy official told NPR in a written statement. 

A second official confirmed that it had registered that acoustic data on Sunday.”
