Topic | How many of you believe the rescue attempt of that titanic submersible will be |

It caught fire during a training exercise where the objective was to practice docking to a mother sub, and it was in coastal waters. And my own reading suggests more than a few crew members did die, but either way, the circumstances of Losharik's accident are totally different than this glorified tin can's. The real miracle is it survived a previous trip to that depth. Also, Losharik is a deep diving "underwater engineering sub" (read: spy sub), with a unique internal pressure hull arrangement of joined spheres. It gets its name from the 70s Soviet short film of the same name about a horse made of balls. --- let's lubricate friction material! ~nickels, Cars & Trucks ... Copied to Clipboard! |
