Has elon musk called anyone a pedo yet?

No talk of passengers, so at the very least one person is missing, but up to 5. Also they have no other submersible that can reach that depth. From an insurance stance, that sounds like a massive liability risk to undertake, not to mention it’s just unwise.

Those are some dead rich folks

edit: you'd have to be suicidal to ride in this thing, look at this vid

Just listened a podcast about the deepest ever submarine rescue. It's pretty much all hands on deck worldwide when a submarine goes missing. Atleast then it was. There aren't many rescue vessels that can go that deep.

"All of these submersibles have been kind of janky," Pogue said.

I need them to find the submersible for my own mental sake. The list of phobias that this is checking off is too much. Claustrophobia, thalassophobia, mazeophobia..

BBC's also got a live feed going for this.

Apparently, the sub's supposed to have a suite of systems to more or less warn the pilot if things are looking dicey, so hopefully this is a communications problem and not something worse.

We need c/nottheonion for stuff like this...
