Tourist submarine on expedition to Titanic wreck goes missing

People are savaging the craft because they used a Playstation controller, but it's actually fairly high tech. Hull is a super thick titanium and spun carbon fiber design and has Real Time Hull Health Monitoring (RTM) systems that continuously monitor hull integrity throughout the dive. Includes acoustic sensors and strain gauges on the pressure boundary to monitor the changing pressures. Also has state-of-the-art lighting, sonar navigation systems, and internally and externally mounted 4K cams. Really a pretty slick craft.

Nope...still ain't doing it.

The craft may cost Millions, but the people are Priceless

Whatever the failure, must not have had a back up or manual override.
 
Wow, that animation showing the various depth of parts of the sea floor and various shipwrecks was amazing. I had to look up the TRIESTE -- a sub that reached the deepest part of the Marianas Trench at almost 11,000 meters deep,

That sub was built in 1953 and achieved its world record setting goal in January of 1960!

Interesting to note that military subs really don't go that deep on the scale of things.
 
Maybe the viewer glassy window got crushed by the trillion pounds of water…. The pressure is so heavy in there that I believe it is not a good spot for a tourism …
Said they were only hour and 45 min in when they lost coms. It also said it takes 8 hours to reach the bottom. So, I'm guessing they were only half a mile down?

Either way a nightmare! Not for me even if free.
