sxan@midwest.social 1 year agoGood point. If any part of a vessel never fully submerges, can it be termed a submarine?

Not really, but it will be good enough to get some affluenza fuck to drop $2bil on it
according to their official page they do have it specced out for 4 weeks of fully submerged operation with a max depth of 250 meters. However, literally none of this is real as it’s just a concept model without real engineering or a prototype built, so the chances of it meeting such specs are whatever the fuck you feel like they are.

For non military or explorative purposes there is absolutely no reason to go that deep. The “submarine experience” at 50m is the same as at 250m. And it smells terribly, because recycling sweaty air only goes that far.

Calmly explaining this to my crewmates on the Titan

It can be submerged but it can’t cruise on batteries for 4 weeks. It’ll have to put it’s snorkel up.
