Tourist(s) missing in submarine while trying to reach the Titannic
https://www.ctvnews.ca/world/u-s-coa...-sub-1.6446841


Quote:
A search and rescue operation is currently underway to locate a submarine that went missing during an expedition to the Titanic.
The U.S. Coast Guard was looking for the submarine Monday morning after it disappeared during the expedition from St. John's, N.L. The infamous 1912 wreck is located more than 600 kilometres southeast of the province in the North Atlantic Ocean.
The trip to the Titanic was being run by OceanGate Expeditions, a U.S.-based company. It uses a five-person submersible named Titan to reach the wreckage 3,800 metres below the surface. OceanGate's website advertises a seven-night voyage to the Titanic for US$250,000 per person, or approximately CA$330,000.
"We are exploring and mobilizing all options to bring the crew back safely," an OceanGate spokesperson said in an email to CTV News. "Our entire focus is on the crewmembers in the submersible and their families."


Those tours are a series of five eight-day missions to the Titanic with the money raised by tourists going towards Titanic research. Posts on social media show the ship launched from the St. John's area last week.

Did they really have 5 people in this?? Or do they have a larger version??

I honestly don't get it.
It's a scientific experiment. Think of him as Schrodinger's billionaire.

It's a sub not built with parts acquired from Home Depot and old game console parts. I don't understand the attraction of sunken ships viewed through a 6-inch diameter porthole eliminated by a flood light powered by a battery that also powers your propulsion. Robotic subs with cameras bring back a better view. If it does go south and the bubble pops it seems a painless way to check out. You become a sea creature slushie before your brain can register it happened.

Agree except for those few minutes of metallic groans and noises made when it's getting close to happening.

About a week after this debacle I took a tourist sub to the bottom of a reef. Pretty amazing experience. Saw white tipped sharks, rays, and a ship wreck. Would recommend highly if you've got kids and need something to do.

Was it here?



I did one in Barbados a decade or so ago. It was a learning experience. I expected a lot of coral and sea life and stuff, but it was mostly just dirt that was underwater.
