[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]May I ask a dumb question? We have pics of the Titanic wreck, so clearly someone has been down there before? How did they live to tell the tale?[/quote] I think the first to take photos was an unmanned sub. But there have been manned subs, like Alvin, which is a spherical sub made out of titanium. The lost titan is different because it’s a tourist sub, not made by a huge research institution like Wood’s hole like Alvin.[/quote] Then why can't one of the subs like Alvin go down and get them.[/quote] They don’t know where it is. Even if they could mobilize Alvin that quickly (which they can’t because there is a long list of checks and safety protocols that organizations like Wood’s Hole requires), without coordinates, it would be like one amoeba trying to find another amoeba in an Olympic sized pool.
