they're deep enough that human beings don't even really know everything that lives down there. they coulda seen something no one has ever seen and taken it to their graves.

Pretty sure it’s in the Bible that crabs can go wherever the gently caress they want

i mean, apparently the crab form is so perfect, it's evolved independently multiple times, such that it has a term. Carcinisation is when something evolves into a crab. they've covalently evolved scores of times, things keep becoming them. it makes them super hard to put together an evolutionary 'tree' because there's no one thing crabs have evolved from, poo poo keeps becoming crabs. biologists are trying to figure out what about the crab form is so perfect that it keeps just showing up in nature over and over.

The Bananana posted:Ok, so, rescue aside. (Lol) It took a bit over a year to find a 200+ foot long military sub that held 40+ people (ARA San Juan). It was made from steel and 3k feet under. Debris were strewn for 86,000 sq ft. Titan is the size of a smart car, 12k feet under, and made of a carbon fiber which shatters. My guess is never. edit: lol guess I'm wrong

I spent 10 seconds googling deepest crab and briefly skimmed that video and didn't see any crabs so I'm pretty sure I'm right.

Hiring inexperienced people would allow him to cut corners and bully the others into doing what he wants whereas a bunch of dudes in their 50's who are good engineers wouldn't allow it.

smoobles posted:also the more I think about it, there's no way they were at the ocean floor. If they didn't implode, it would've been a power or comms failure, and they would have dropped the ballast (which can be done with or without power) The ballast is dropped by either rocking the sub (lmao) or pressing a mechanical button. The ballast is supposed to deteriorated after 24 hours and raise the ship, but it obviously hasn't, so they probably died once the ship stopped sending telecommunication, or shortly before. My guess is that 7" thick 80lb acrylic window finally popped an hour to hour and a half in (it's supposed to have a visual crackle effect when it is about to fail, for whatever good that does), which sounds like it happened about maybe 1800m down based on people saying it was halfway down when they lost contact, when the window was rated for 1300m. Mfg often reduce the rating to cover their asses so that's probably when the viewport popped. Fun thing, at that depth, the pressure is equivalent to 250 atmospheres. Historically, on an oil rig when this happened, the pressure inside was 9 atmospheres, and they were on the surface. They didn't seal the diving bell correctly on the Byford Dolphin and the guy nearest the door became literally gristle as he got forcefully ejected, his organs spewing everywhere. The three other crewmen boiled from the inside and one person got smashed by the ejected diving bell, and another got seriously hurt by the bell. This was in 1983. My guess, is the glass popped and they either drowned and it fell vertically into the mud somewhere rather quickly, making the object even smaller to find on sonar, or, the pressure caused the bodies to eject out of the viewport like a unkinked hose, spewing gore and causing the ship to travel a distance away from the titanic in the opposite direction of the viewport, making it harder to find because it's a larger surface area to search. I think the ship probably would be intact in either situation.

The Bananana posted:Ok, so, rescue aside. (Lol) Until we have some idea what happened no assumption is possible, but if I was betting I'd put money that they'll never be found. Basically the only scenarios I see that result in them being found are: 1. Their untested ballast fail-safes worked correctly and they are floating on the surface right now. 2. The maximum stupid irony death where they made it to the Titanic wreck and got stuck on something. The next dive to the titanic discovers them wedged into the grand staircase or whatever. Anything else -- failed catastrophically or sunk intact -- means the remains are somewhere in the Titanic debris field and probably will never be found (or even seriously searched for). Looking for a small sub in a field of wreck junk would be hard. edit: lmao possibly wrong before I finished writing the post
