Is OceanGate in trouble for not using a good submarine to see the Titanic?

    was never not-experimental

    Is that why it had “five crew” and not “a pilot and four passengers?” 'Cause “passengers” would imply commercial use but this is crosses fingers a totally legit prototype with a “crew” of “mission specialists” simply “testing” it or some such?

      probably

      but like if you’ve got people renting a submersible for science… Like the Triton sub… those are crew and not passengers.

      you know… if I paid $250k for a ride… I’d expect seats. and maybe something other than a bottle to piss in. possibly more than a curtain so my shits don’t get smelled by… everyone…

          You can insist…

          But I’m definitely going to shit myself when the giant squid tries to grab some submersible tail…
