Nah. Technology and engineering. If you left it up to scientists, five of 'em would still be arguing about who gets first billing in the peer reviewed journal. Or which one to submit it to.Science........
Size of the Titanic compared to a typical modern day cruise ship
Uh oh.
Too late. The next 3D scan of the the Titanic will show the Titanic II stuck in a porthole.Yep, $250,000 per person to die in the depths of the Atlantic.
Not something that I would be interested in doing. Maybe they can be found/rescued however...
Wrong! Hindenburg, sure. How old do you think these guys are?!?!?C'mon I'm sure more than half the members on this board still have their newspaper clippings and can recite the initial radio broadcast when the Titanic went down.....
I doubt gps signals reach very far underwater. I believe they use a system of triangulation off of known points using acoustics, along with inertial accelerometers and such.I think I heard this right…there is no GPS location device aboard the submersible; it’s guided by text messages from a surface vessel.
$250,000 ticket price per person and it relies on texting.
I took the lack of gps from a news report…the same that said they relied on texting for communication & navigation. Both did seem strange so I looked up the dive of the Trieste bathyscaphe in 1960 to the bottom of the Mariana Trench, a depth of almost 36,000 ft (3 times the depth of the Titanic site) with two crew members. Communication was by “sonar / hydrophone” voice communication system. It took 7 seconds for a voice signal to reach the surface.I doubt gps signals reach very far underwater. I believe they use a system of triangulation off of known points using acoustics, along with inertial accelerometers and such.
No, but every time I watch that Titanic movie that dumbass Captain hits the iceberg every damned time, and that dumb broad Rose never moves over to let Jack on that piece of wood, the bitch has plenty of room, every damned time.C'mon I'm sure more than half the members on this board still have their newspaper clippings and can recite the initial radio broadcast when the Titanic went down.....
