Tourist submarine exploring Titanic wreckage disappears in Atlantic Ocean

So did you magically figure out how google works to get that 3 knot number? Because a minute ago you had no idea how it would do anything and wanted to be spoonfed, now you're a submersible expert :confused:

Are you relly a retard, or do you just try really hard to come across as one?

The three knot number comes from the spec sheet on their own web site. It's posted a dozen times in this thread.

You are the person who claims that those four puny thrusters can completely handle any trim or tilt situation. So 'splain it to us, Lucy, because you clearly seem to be out of your depth. Pun intended.

Since you stated that anyone would understand how they controlled tilt and trim by 'loking at the picture', looking at the picture you posted, how would that sub recover from a nose dive situation?

Anyone ever seen that clip showing them carefully unbolting the hatch of a bathyscape/diving bell that leaked while down deep?
It was a test or something.
They unbolted the hatch once they had it on the barge.

That hatch blew off into the next state and the stream of water that came out was impressive.
It was in the 60’s or so.

Can’t find the clip for hours of looking :homer:
If you’ve read this far you can have a go of finding it now :cool:cool

That was just a hatch and water blowing out

The Byford Dolphin incident upped the ante and did that with people.

 
What was this from: The Hatch just blew, it was a technical malfunction.

So you can read words on a picture, but you can't look at components in a picture and understand how they work? Ok good to know.

Last I checked ya geriatric mouth breather, I never said anything about the thrusters capability. They're fuckin obviously there, and the submergible, as shit as it may be, has clearly made at least one trip down and back successfully. So the 'puny thrusters' have apparently been successful once.

I didn't program the pile of shit, so how the fuck do you want me to explain to you in little kid terms that you can understand how directional forces could possibly be made by the thrusters to level itself?

I made a general statement about the fuckin components being clearly there, yet you put words into by mouth, again.

Pull your strap on dick out of your ass and put it back in your drop leg "ar" holster where it belongs

We were told a story in high school from a retired Navy diver.

He was in the decompression chamber and had to poo. Well there are two valves on that bad larry. One for flushing the toilet, and one on the outside of the chamber to empty the black water tank.

Someone left the empty the black water tank open and he went to courtesy flush. It sucked his intestines out through his butthole. He had to carry them to the "help me" button.

LOL your feeble attempts to backtrack are quite indicative of a weak minded person.

Let's revisit the chain of events:

(1) I posted that no video or article that we have seen so far in this thread mention how tilt and trim were controlled on that sub, and if anyone had any information on that.

(2) You replied, 'look at the picture'.

(3) I replied for you to educate me on what in the picture controls tilt and trim since it darn sure is not apparent.

(4) You posted a picture of it with no explanation.

(5) Despite my specific questioning for you (since you are, apparently, the expert given your first response) you lament 'thrusters' and offer nothing but the type of responses that truly ignorant people resort to when they are backed into an intellectual corner from which they do not have the means to escape.

Now, let me help yu to improve your critical thinking skills. The 3 knots is important because that is an indicator of the maneuvering power available. That pig weighed over 21,000 pounds wet and has a pretty good cross-section, as well as a pretty variable COG because the passengers can move forward and back insode. So right off the bat we know that the sub is not exactly a powerhouse and is out of breath with a current - that could be going front to back, side to side, or up and down - of 3 knots.

Next, we see from where the thrusters are located that they only seem effective at the COM. They cannot steer or lift the bow or stern separately. Normally, trim is adjusted by adjustments to the attitude of the bow or stern of a vessel, and tilt by the same for side to side. How do you do that with thrusters located at the middle? Maybe with sliding weights or trim tanks that can be flooded or purged - but we see no evidence of those n the picture, right? Are you with me so far?

Lastly, the joystick controllers seems to operate akin to a POV control n a video game. Move forward or back, up or down, turn right or left. Wonderful. No avatar n a video game is being pushed sideways or downhill. Ergo, no tilt or trim control capability. Which means that if even with super-duper powerful thrusters, and if even with them located where they were was capable of helping with tilt and trim, the operator had no way to independently control the thrusters to counter.

Read the above several times. Carefully. Point to the words with your fingers and move your lips if it helps. Once you get it, then look again at the picture and help me understand how that craft handled tilt and trim adjustments. For bonus points, explain how it could recover from a nose dive.

We'll patiently wait for your response because we know you'll need time to thin it through. Good luck, we're all counting on you.

I'm not reading your paragraphs of word vomit mental masturbation :shaking:

Of course not. That would be hard and require concentration and awareness. It's OK, laddie, we understand.

Or I have more important shit to do on a Friday then read the drivel posted by a pseudo intellectual who has too much time on their hands. The bit I skimmed on my way out the door was riddled with bullshit and assumptions, so your verbose response is no better constructed than any of mine.

Does anybody besides me want to start dumping random junk into the depths now with cameras attached to watch it implode under the pressure?

For the sake of clarity, do you mean :
The depths of this thread ?
The depths of the ocean ?
...just asking for a friend

:flipoff2:
 
It makes you wonder about those submarine movies where after they have depth charges go off around them, water starts coming in through plumbing pipes and they frantically shut them down. Is that just Hollywood or reality and if reality, not deep enough pressure to crush the sub?
