Tourist sub taking groups to look at Titanic wreckage goes missing

I believe I read that the descent took 2 hours and they were 1 hour and 45 minutes into it when they lost contact, so were very close to the Titanic depth.

I've also read that at that depth the water compresses the air in the sub so fast that it incinerates everything inside.

Wonder if this is why they keep saying that finding passenger remains is unlikely.

If you watch this video where the "wound" channel closes up after the bullet goes through there's a flash, that's the best representation of what happened to those people.

 
Do a test where you have 14 psi in it and then put 2216 psi on the outside and report back the results. ;)

US Navy detected Titan sub implosion days ago

WASHINGTON—A top secret U.S. Navy acoustic detection system designed to spot enemy submarines first heard the Titan sub implosion hours after the submersible began its mission, officials involved in the search said.

The Navy began listening for the Titan almost as soon as the sub lost communications, according to a U.S. defense official. Shortly after its disappearance, the U.S. system detected what it suspected was the sound of an implosion near the debris site discovered Thursday and reported its findings to the commander on site, U.S. defense officials said.

“The U.S. Navy conducted an analysis of acoustic data and detected an anomaly consistent with an implosion or explosion in the general vicinity of where the Titan submersible was operating when communications were lost,” a senior U.S. Navy official told The Wall Street Journal in a statement. “While not definitive, this information was immediately shared with the Incident Commander to assist with the ongoing search and rescue mission.”

The Navy asked that the specific system used not be named, citing national security concerns.

NASA distances itself from OceanGate disaster, claiming it only carried out remote consultations and did NOT manufacture or test Titan sub - after University of Washington and Boeing denied ANY involvement
