Latest Recreational Submersible (Read 507 times)

Jasin Gold Member Offline Posts: 56783 Gender:	Latest Recreational Submersible Apr 26^th, 2024 at 1:40am I don't think this is a 'deep dive' submersible. But for 'recreational' purposes - it looks pretty neat. The Triton (very original ) https://www.msn.com/en-au/news/other/incredible-new-submarine-looks-like-ufo/vi-...

You have to exit the vehicle first as it floods.

If it implodes suddenly the biggest problem would be all the bits of plastic and steel coming at you. Plus your eardrums would burst, which would be a bit disorienting. If it is strong enough to dive to 200m you would probably not be able to get out unless it fell apart, or it was just a slow leak that left the door functional.

People who can't distinguish between etymology and entomology bug me in ways I cannot put into words.

With some new Submersible gadget like this.......

I'd want to know what its repeatable, multiple failure, depth specification was.

i.e.
Are the makers of this contraption, prepared to do repeatable 'destructive testing', on at least 4 or five builds, of exactly the the same model [for consistency of their testing] ?

And would they be prepared publish, at what depth the device would 'tend' to fail ?

Even then......myself, i would be inclined let others 'play' with it.

"....And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead."
Luke 16:31
