Bad Purchase posted:you sure INS doesn't tell you depth? do they make special ones for ocean use that aren't 3-axis? i'm a bit familiar with their use in aviation (not super versed, i've worked on software that collects that data stream from a GPS/IMU, but don't really know all the math that goes into combining them into a final result), but i know it worked in all 3 axes. I mean in theory INS could, but no one does because of the error accumulation with INS systems. It's far safer and more accurate to use a pressure based depth sensor. Keep in mind a RLGN system can drift 3000 yards with 30hrs of removing the GPS fix and still be "in spec" for most navies. In depth terms that's way past crush depth errors.

drat this thread moves fast, just caught up with 600 posts overnight. Many LOLs were had. The highlights definitely include: - The ballast you have to move by sitting on one side of the sub - The port hole next to the piss bottle toilet covered by a curtain - Celine Dion Spotify playlist - The Blink 182 concert  - the sub being built to the highest carbon fiber aerospace standards.

If this thing did catastrophically fail, aren't they pretty much searching for a sedan-sized piece of flattened scrap metal at the bottom of the ocean, meaning there's almost zero chance of, or reason to spend effort on, finding it?

Closer to shards of im/exploded carbon fiber, so even lower odds of finding it.

Pretty sure the pressure wave would turn the carbon fiber into like a gazillion pieces. As I understand it, the carbon fiber aspect of carbon fiber is just a binding material for the actual structure which is resin, so pretty brittle, I would think the pressure wave would just turn the resin into dust instantly, ripping the carbon fiber into a billion pieces in the process.

It's worse: the dipshit CEO decided to make the sub out of carbon fibers because NASA but not only is this apparently a miserable material for high pressure environments, when it does fail to pressure it does so quickly, catastrophically, and shatters rather than bending or cracking. So it's entirely possible that all you could find is thousands of shattered pieces of carbon fiber, the titanium sealing ring/hatch, some early 2000's gaming and audio equipment, and some greasy pockets of red jelly.

Say what you will about Troy Hurtubise, but had he been wearing his bear-proof suit when he crashed his car into a gasoline truck causing an explosion, it would have at least been a lot more awesome.

At first I felt bad for the crew. Then I learned that the crew was the CEO of the company and then I could completely enjoy their demise with no lingering shame. The biggest failure of this submarine is that if it had lasted a few more trips they might have been able to get Elon Musk on it.

I'm not an ocean man though so I'm not sure how needed that level of testing would be.

Man, what a way to go. Dying while huffing rich people farts in a metal pringles can at the bottom of the ocean. The part that gets me is that when you’re that deep and isolated, if anything whatsoever goes wrong, you’re hosed. It’s not like a rescue vehicle can just show up.

Further Reading posted:He said to anywhere deeper than the titanic. The titanic is as deep as the titanic. It is not sensible to send your submersible past the depth to which it is pressure rated, otherwise they implode. The company is hilarious incompetent and borderline criminal in it's disregard for safety, but they tested that thing to a reasonable depth. Certainly didn't test it enough or do anywhere near enough "basic safety" before they brought paying customers on board though.
