Im not a student of the natural sciences, aside from galvanics. But iirc folks in the thread said that the pressure from water rushing in would do crazy poo poo like compress and superheat the air while turning it to plasma. The dudes would get carbonized, crushed, then misted? I just want the inevitable low-budget horror film about this to have a guy making GBS threads by the viewport to be looking at a small crack form when suddenly a pin-hole sized spout cuts through his eye then spreads and cuts him with a blade of firewater. Maybe he can say "oh poo poo" or quip "is it supposed to do that" before Titan2c assplodes.

trouser chili posted:That's basically the same outcome but more recoverable. So we can pulverise a sub full of billionaires then haul it back in and throw in some more? That's much more efficient. Droogie posted:Acoustic buoys wouldn't pick it up if it imploded before they placed them, unless there's one there for research purposes, I guess. They're always listening aren't they?  Thought at least the US navy were constantly monitoring all over the place, not to mention various science projects

Maybe they self inflicted an implosion by crashing into an object after realizing they had no hope of a rescue

I blame the Titanic Captain. If he steered it a bit north, it would be on higher ground. So this wouldn't happen.

I keep looking at the pictures of the sub and imaging I'm a millionaire, out on a ship, getting ready to sub-dive, and then seeing that thing. My first thought would be, "WTF?! No loving way. Keep my money, I don't care, but there is no way in hell I'm going down in that thing." What's with all the exposed cabling on the top? A shark or tuna could bump into it and sever what I assume are cables essential to the sub's operation. I don't know anything about deep sea vessels but one glance at that thing is a big old, "Nope".

birds posted:Maybe they self inflicted an implosion by crashing into an object after realizing they had no hope of a rescue I was actually wondering what the possibility of this would be. Like if it would have been possible to use something sharp to hack through the interior lining and chip away enough of the carbon fiber resin to let the ocean do the rest.

Could it be that all the activity over there is attracting sharks? Like the vibrations from all the search and rescue boats makes them think there's a huge school of fish over there?

it dont matter posted:They're always listening aren't they? Yeah there's networks of passive hydro-acoustic listening devices all around the ocean. Military ones, for detecting submarines and whatnot, and scientific ones for doing science poo poo. Like even back in the 60s they heard the Thresher imploding, and modern stuff is way better. But again, who knows what a carbon fiber sub sounds like if it implodes.

Man this story just keeps getting better. First its 5 randoms > oh no its a billionaire + a multi millionaire > sub is using logitech wireless controller > ship looks like its DIY > righties blaming wokeness for the crash > ceo of the company's wife's ancestors died in the titanic > sharks may be involved? This is a loving netflix documentary in the making lads.

Plot twist: The sharks were caught in the net of a fishing boat that went to help in the search.

I looked up the Gabe Newell and James Cameron subs and they looked a lot safer, maybe they should have made something like that. The Gabe one did like 26 deep sea dives in a year to the Mariana Trench.

Th US Navy certainly does now. Also if these guys got souped wouldn't the plankton be the ones to eat them? You might have a better shot at ingesting some over confident CEO biomass by eating Atlantic Salmon instead of crab.
