nine-gear crow posted:IF THEY WEREN'T loving BOLTED INTO THE AIR-TIGHT SUB FROM THE OUTSIDE HOLY poo poo Huh. So if they did somehow find the submersible intact, with pressure issues would the rescuers be able to open the shell? Would it have to be towed somehow back to the surface? Does that capability even exist?

So if that was them banging they're getting the bad suffocation death instead of instant implosion one huh

Does that capability even exist? it would have to be opened on the surface, yeah, there's no way anything would be able to dock with it at the depths it went to. you would need something to fully seal around the hatch at 1 atm of pressure and then somehow undo the bolts. nothing out there is equipped to do that underwater. even if they could surface on their own and unbolt it from the inside, it would quickly fill with water and sink, and the water there is cold enough that they'd die from hypothermia not long after

The sub lost contact on the dive down, not on the bottom. Didn't someone say one of the failsafes was some sort of thumper on a half hour timer? It probably got triggered when the wreckage hit the sea floor.  somewhere nearby, an impossibly ancient crab smells something it hasn't in forever.. .

Redmark posted:Huh. So if they did somehow find the submersible intact, with pressure issues would the rescuers be able to open the shell? Would it have to be towed somehow back to the surface? Does that capability even exist? They absolutely couldn't open the sub on the sea floor or it would just explosively decompress and kill any potential survivors on board. They'd need to find a way to float it back up to the surface which is really difficult for a number of reasons, IIRC the coast guard's submarine rescue capability is only rated for 2km so even if they knew the exact position of the intact sub with confirmed survivors on the seafloor, they can't actually get down to it safely. There are research subs that are rated for that depth but even if they were powerful enough to drag a whole rear end other sub up to the surface getting any kind of winch or tow onto it would be extremely tricky since it'd all have to be done by maneuvering the rescue craft itself, since we're talking 400 atmos of pressure where it is physically impossible for human divers to operate without turning into fine red mist. My understanding is that the "hope" for rescue is that either the sub has made it to the surface and will eventually be spotted, or was able at some point to drop the ballast and is slowly rising and by the time it is found will be high enough in elevation a more feasible rescue operation can be undertaken. If they really are just chilling on the sea floor 4km down next to the Titanic wreckage they may be well and truly hosed even if they were to be found while anybody on board was still alive.

I wonder if they lost contact and some functionality but could still skoot around near the Titanic and were like "well uhh we'll die soon uhh do you want to see the titanic wreck anyway? might be kinda cool."

Grover and Joe Exotic teamed up to create a tiger of a sub. I'm surprised Elon hasn't called the captain a pedophile yet or developed a sub that can help to locate the load bearing glass windows they apparently relied on to withstand depths 4X their rating. I mean I swear to God I hope they dub the rescue footage with a transparent musk photograph. Or maybe dub desantises campaign announcement over the rescue of the crews very compact remains.

The US Navy has capabilities that could be used to rescue the submersible, such as FDOSS, if the submersible can be properly located; FDOSS has brought equipment larger than this sub up, and from much greater depths. It wouldn't be easy and still might not work, but it's not quite as bleak as you said.

It probably got triggered when the wreckage hit the sea floor. apparently losing contact has been a thing that happened to them before on "successful" dives according to the CBS guy that rode along with the surface vessel, so time of contact loss is not necessarily the time of catastrophic failure. he said they lost contact for 5 hours and the crew of the boat shut off the internet so they couldn't live tweet it

reptilians posted:My theory is that submarines are an object that has a platonic ideal (ie they’re arguably the opposite of airplanes, and there are submarine lego sets on the market, so it’s different from something like a unicycle, which has no lego set , purpose, or opposing vehicle) and this particular submarine sunk because it strayed too far from that form (no periscope tower thing or giant singular propeller on the back for instance) There is glory in this post.

Nah they’re turning all that O2 into CO2 and that’s the real bad kind of air death. If they’re alive I really hope they get rescued, because despite the levels of questionably-ironic psychopathy in this thread, I can’t wish that level of suffering on anyone.
