[PSUBS-MAILIST] Titan submersible missing at Titanic site

[irox via Personal_Submersibles]

I believe the hull is made of carbon fiber and the submersible wasn't certified any regulatory body (ABS/Lloyds/etc).

This video gives some idea of the operation:

They read the waiver terms and conditions at 2:40 mark.  At the 7:27 mark they show a previous expedition where they lose communication with the sub and it gets "lost" (since it depends on topside of navigation data) for a couple of hours.

Hoping for the best.

Ian.

I'm sorry to hear this news. Hoping and praying the sub is found quickly with no loss of life! What do we know about the Oceangate Titan submersible? Hopefully at least 72-hrs of life support for its five occupants? ~ Doug S.
