It's as awkward as it looks to use. In 2024 I stayed on the Polar Prince for a work trip during a fall expedition. On this expedition I learned that this was THE ship involved with Titan, ever since then I've been fascinated with consuming all content covering oceangate. Here's some pics from my cabin as well. submitted by /u/snotrayg [link] [comments]
I mean, aren't they going to rust anyway when they release them and they stay for eternity on the ocean floor? Stockton couldn't afford to coat them in oil so they wouldn't flash rust? He no longer had the power sanders they used to grind down the high spots from the carbon fiber? submitted by /u/msbkid [link] [comments]
Does anyone know if there are any pieces of the submersible left in St Johns or surrounding area? submitted by /u/dank_memesforteens [link] [comments]
I am wondering if anyone knows the location of the parking lot that the titan sub was stored at over winter. I am just curious where exactly it was in Newfoundland submitted by /u/JavaBerryCrunch [link] [comments]
https://www.law360.com/articles/2506282 Apparently, Oceangate's general liability insurer is suing to avoid having to pay any claims relating to the Nargeolet estate's lawsuit. The article is paywalled, but I looked the case up in PACER (the case number is 2:26-cv-02632-BJR in the Western District of Washington). The insurer argues that coverage is excluded because, amongst other issues, there is…
Just watched the documentary and have a few questions. I don't know much about materials science or the economics of deep-sea submersibles. Titan completed multiple dives before the accident. If it had been designed as a single-use sub, would that have been economically feasible? From a safety standpoint, would a carbon-fiber hull have been considered reasonably safe for just one dive, with…

I'm re-watching the video where Stockton is talking to David Pogue. He pulled a blue OceanGate touchscreen pen out of his sleeve pocket. The cameraman zoomed into it, as my screenshot shows. Is it possible this is the kind of pen that survived the implosion? submitted by /u/msbkid [link] [comments]
