[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess the bottom line unfortunately is that even if they locate it, there isn’t a feasible way to bring the vessel back up or if they devise a way, their oxygen will run out before they can get everything in place to do that. can you imagine sitting in that thing and possibly seeing an unmanned rover float by knowing they found you or at least located you but you’re still likely to die? That’s why I’m hoping they’re dead or already falling asleep. Just end the torture already. [/quote] I would assume it would likely take a week or more to coordinate a crane and unmanned submissable to lift it without dropping it [/quote] And over 12000 feet of steel cable to lift 20k pounds. I'm guessing that much cable is not just laying around everywhere.[/quote] It might be but you need at least 1" wire rope. That's 2 lbs/ft. You need 12,000 ft, so that's 24,000 lbs of rope to lift a 20,000 lb vehicle. [/quote]
