The titanic vol. lost

[storm2006]

Just read duke bought the CF from Being at a discounted price cause it was passed its shelf life. Dude was wylin.

Yeah, I can’t confirm or deny any of that but at this point the entire thing (company, preparation, etc) was so cockamamie that it’s just another small rock in a sea of negligence (no pun intended).

Here is an article on the CFRP conversation for anyone interested: https://www.insider.com/oceangate-ceo-said-titan-made-old-material-bought-boeing-report-2023-6?amp

Geez.....if someone ever needs an example for why regulations and standards matter they have the perfect one here.

Kinda feel bad for the kid though.

I feel super bad for the kid. Apparently his aunt said he didn’t wanna go but he went anyway to make his father happy on Father’s Day

Doesn’t take a genius to know that carbon fiber aint cutting it 12,000 feet down

You are correct, but it's actually even worse than that. If what I have read is true, the composite material that the hull was made of would have made testing entirely irrelevant. Meaning even testing it couldn't prevent anything. Scary ****. Nobody would have signed up for that if they explained it that way prior to.

The goal of testing isn't to prevent failures from happening; it's to validate that the product being tested can be operated within the design parameters.

Speaking of the hull material itself, additional testing would've been necessary because the design of the sub was unconventional (cylinder body for very deep dives instead of spherical shape), and the material was unconventional and dictated the shape of the sub body (can't turn carbon fiber into sphere without weakening it).

From all the information that is transpiring from this tragedy, it sounds like the CEO had an early prototype that he misrepresented as the final product, even though a number of critical issues were raised by his engineering team.

Good practice would have been to determine/verify all the ways in which his sub would fail and update the design. Why he didn't do that is anyone's guess: my hunch is that he couldn't afford to build a second prototype and just went YOLO.

I thought it was used for several exhibitions before.

And I read that it’s not uncommon that a Logitech controller is used to operate subs or aircraft’s. Never knew this.

They was using Jordan Retro "carbon fiber"

This has to be trolling cause ain’t no way dawg lol

This is like the ID that was found for the "Terrorist" that crashed into the twin towers

Man some Cloverfield **** lol

 

[cloud.architect]

Which one is more plausible though ?

It was. The issue is that it started to lose its integrity over the years and he didn’t wanna build a new one or replace what was being worn down from their expeditions.

He probably thought it was good enough for supercars with a carbon tub and retro Jordans it's good enough for the depths of the ocean

Damn, seeing how another father and son dodged this thing is one thing, but seeing the info/few texts about the CEO trying to push sales is just horrific.

I think this mission was two fold.

I think this mission was about:

-reaching the corazon of the Earth
-reaching the "core ah zone" of the Earth

*corazon = emotional heart of GOD
**"core ah zone = physical Heaven on Earth

I believe that the passengers son that went to the Blink 182 concert... went because prior to his father going on this mission... he knew that his father would either:

-reach the corazon of the Earth... or the emotional heart of GOD... because whether his father completed his mission or not... even trying his mission itself took heart.... and he knew his father would be emotionally discussed as being brave and of heart... by the masses.
-reach the "core ah zone" of the Earth... physical Heaven on Earth... complete his mission... and return... with directions... for the masses.

There are lots of different stories about a "core ah zone"... heaven on earth... or cave paradise... inside of the heart... or corazon... of GOD. I believe that the crew believed the stories... and went for it.. knowing that they would either:

-reach the corazon of the Earth
-reach the "core ah zone" of the Earth

Or the kid was just on the spectrum and didnt have the ability to understand how it would look to other people…or he knew his step father was already gone. Or just didnt care
