The first step in the Deep Sentinel program, one of the most ambitious ocean-engineering projects in decades, will be completed this year. This initial step, called Vanguard, will shelter three aquanaut-scientists at depths of 100 meters. Eventually, the project will create a modular underwater habitat system that will let scientists live underwater for weeks at a time.
I now wonder if part of the reason that all happened is because the controller battery died, so they couldn’t ascend.
Nah, the shell cracked, pretty much instant death. Dodgy tech works until it doesn’t, only the first critical failure matters
Well duh? I’ve read the reports. I mean that maybe they went too deep because the controller died. Eg, dude holds button that tells controllers to go deeper. Controller dies… Sub just takes last input and keeps going deeper until it hits the catastrophic depth.
Guy was an idiot for sure, I just wonder if the controller played ANY role at all.
