#the amount of corner cut on that submersible was astounding
Text
all i've learned from this submersible situation is that u could never pay me enough to step foot into the ocean
#also that it was a materials selection nightmare#why are u putting carbon fiber in high pressure environments#it's still a fairly new material compared to other materials used in deep sea operations#and sure it was paired with titanium#but there's a reason why navy submarines and such are made of materials that can deform and huge amounts of compression over multiple uses#i.e. steel and aluminum#also carbon fiber has good tensile strength (pulling it apart) as opposed to compressive strength (pushing on it)#on top of the fact that it's much more brittle than say metals#metals can deform and won't immediately crack under intense pressure#while carbon fiber likely would (there hasn't been enough testing of the behavior of cf under rly high pressures)#the amount of corner cut on that submersible was astounding#i especially feel bad for the 19 yr old on there since he only went to make his father happy :(#ok nerd rant over#wait i didn't mention THE WIRELESS GAME CONTROLLER#U DON'T WANT THAT#EVERYTHING SHOULD BE HARD WIRED TOGETHER#also the viewpoint wasn't even graded to go that deep#viewport*#someone on twt called it a deep sea hubris coffin#and#yeah it kinda was#ashlee's bs
