As I note, maybe more vehicles mean more noise, which would make it more difficult to locate the missing sub in that manner?
If the article is even factually correct, which we do not yet know, we certainly have no way to know that it's factually complete. I suspect we don't have the whole story and that any articles produced at this stage are full of assumptions and more than a little spin to help drive ad sales.
We don't know but will probably find out in the days and weeks to come.
What if they find it right now. Then what? There is nothing on site to go down and get it. They don't have enough air to wait for it to arrive. They need both on site.
If we are including the potential for death into the equation then sure, but otherwise? Im taking first hand experience almost every time.
I can live without seeing a shipwreck up close and having an epic panic attack inside a submersible. Video will suffice.
I’m sure those “deregulate everything” ultra-millionaires on board that glorified science fair project 13,000 feet under water are rethinking their politics about now.
Nothing to "deregulate" in the middle of the ocean well outside of any national boundaries.I’m sure those “deregulate everything” ultra-millionaires on board that glorified science fair project 13,000 feet under water are rethinking their politics about now.
All I’m saying is that they trusted profit motive alone to keep themselves safe.
Even Milton Friedman wouldn’t have been dumb enough to get into that thing.
Whether someone has a lot of money or just a little.....stupid people do stupid things. Crazy that folks thought this was a good idea.All I’m saying is that they trusted profit motive alone to keep themselves safe.
neither UK nor Canada has the resources...... (tho Canada has some, and is assisting).
I read that even if they did locate it, it could be down so far that the equipment they would need to raise it would take days to deploy. I think their best hope is that it got stuck on something and isn't down too far or it popped back up on the surface somewhere.
Everybody likes to talk crap about America until they need our help. We’re the world’s police force.
No doubt they were aware enough of the risks, though. I don't see an issue here. It's a very, very voluntary thing and a tiny number of people.All I’m saying is that they trusted profit motive alone to keep themselves safe.
Not sure but an awful lot of people do stupid things that cause the coast guard and others to go rescue them. I'd imagine the number of people sailing out to sea each year and getting drunk or doing other stupid things that cause rescue operations is huge. I've been a hiker since my days at RU and I know a lot of people do this in the mountains. Certainly the Coast Guard must have guidelines that say if the risk is too high to personnel due to weather they simply back off, as they should.
