[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My big takeaway from this thread is that the state of basic science education in this country is dire indeed. JFC. [/quote] And not just science, but just... common sense. Sharks are mammals. They should have just put a cable on it, connected to the mothership. Why no GPS? Was the selfie from a guy trapped in the sub? WTF people? I'm hoping some of these are trolls or maybe kids posting here. [/quote] To the poster who mocked me for asking about a potential fiber optic cable tether please see the link below. It looks like this might be a possibility in the future. https://www.uri.edu/news/2021/05/compact-deployment-system-makes-exploring-deep-seas-easier/ I did some googling and many deep sea research vessels, including some manned vessels, ARE tethered to support ships. They are built around giant winches. [/quote]
