Could Anyone Still Be Alive INSIDE The Aurora? (Subnautica Lore Theory)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 чер 2024
- After being struck by the quarantine enforcement platform, the Aurora began plummeting toward the surface, and anyone unable to reach an escape pod was killed. This is the first thing we learn upon leaving the lifepod, but is it really the case? Could anyone have survived INSIDE the Aurora?!? It’s more likely than you might think...

*SHIP F**KING EXPLODES*
"Never mind"
🤣
That and the severe radiation in the hours (days? Weeks?) before you go patch the Drive Core.
Also, I completely read your comment in Thor / Ragnarok / Korg voice.
I was literally half way through the vid before realising that.
the explosion was powerful,but half the ship withstood it
😂😂😂😂
Headcannon: Lifepod 4 Guy wasn’t killed by Reapers. He made it onto the ship, to be killed by the explosion instead.
That is a cool way to go
Like imagine 55m snakes try to eat you but you narrowly escape only to be killed by a giant explosion
@@pwr4 there is less sufering i guess
@@jusros0792 Depends on your definition of suffering. You could theoretically survive the explosion if you were within certain parts of the ship, especially parts already in water. The water would insulate you from harms way, other areas you might get stuck on fire or even pass out from fumes. Even if you survived, if you didn't have a lead inline suit you would suffer from radiation poisoning. You would be increasingly fortunate to be very close to the drive core upon the explosion. At least then the suffering and pain wouldn't last but a second.
Dying to reper would be more of a fear thing, suffering only for but a moment until eaten.
He could never have gotten in before the explosion.
There would have been more potential survivors because lifepods 26 - 50 were too damaged from the QEP shot to launch
I imagine that area of the ship got crushed, so I kinda wrote those guys out of the equation
furry
If 1-25 was on left side, that mean 26-50 was on right side,
some lifepods landed 2km from aurora, because of that lifepods 26-50 would landed in crush zone and void, something of 15 would not be found, and 4-7 would drown because of broken flotation device, it gives 3-6 fine lifepods, but there comes reaper, ghost and by some theories gargantuan leviathans, even if someone manage to came to island, would be late or would be killed by reaper in their way to aurora (this was plan of Yu and second officer Keen when they meet on island, but they have been killed in their way to aurora)
And if they comes late anddecides to wait, they will loose hope that somebody make it and they will go explore and maybe survive they menage to meet Riley, or (on the island) they got bored waiting and go explore and because they dont know where is safe they would have ~75% if coming to dangerous place
According to what we see while playing and also the loading screen, didn't the Aurora get hit on the upper left engine? I know the port side lifepods (1-25) deployed, but how was the starboard side damaged more?
The fact the Aurora only has 157 passengers is far more surprising to me
Same
it had 0.25 cubic kilometers of storage, which is bonkers. Clearly it was a mass hauling vessel, which have much smaller populations because there aren't many passengers if any, and you only need the people running the ship, which could be done 90% from control rooms.
it was a mostly cargo ship, not a passenger ship
157 passengers
100 life pod berths
Looks like the White Star Line went back in business at some point.
That’s actually kinda strange considering it says ALL personnel abandon ship in the intro scene but who knows maybe the life pods on the other side were bigger
I mea each pod has two seats
There were fifty pods@@British_navy
@@sawyermccall2370 There were also a lot of Seamoths, which are noted as being space capable. They may have been part of the evacuation plans.
Some life pods for more than 1 person
What if some people didnt survive because abandon ship was playing on the speakers and they liked the music
I mean, can you blame em 🤣
tu tu tu tu tu tu tutu tu 🗣🔥🔥
Red Alert, not Abandon Ship
You forgot something important. Anyone who was lucky enough to survive past the Radiation poisoning (they had a suit) and the Cave Crawlers (fended them off successfully, if multiple persons had knives and they kept in groups to slash up the critters before they could slash them) and the Kharaa bacterium (delayed reaction to symptoms because of minuscule differences in their immunity systems, which can only hold it off for a little longer) would all have been killed anyways when the front of the Aurora exploded because of the ship’s Nuclear Reactor becoming unstable due to the leak in the Drive Core. Ryley himself can be killed if he wanders into the Radiation zone by the ship, right before the explosion. How much worse it would be for anyone trapped inside the ship. I imagine they would be instantly vaporized.
They could have fixed the drive core before it exploded
@@theclassyguy4665but did they?
No...
So they died when the ship exploded...
The game tells you that survival knifes were banned because of a massacre on another ship
@@realzguardian*Weapons* were banned from *fabricators.* after the massacre on *obraxis prime* (a planet)
The closest comparison would be battleships suffering a magazine explosion.
In those cases there were survivors but they had lots of armour and unless they escaped the wreck or escaped they would be killed by fire / asphixiation.
The Aurora would have no armour to speak of so the explosion would rip through the ships internals with a more devastating effect. If there were survivors of the crash they probably moved to the front of the ship to try and (unsuccessfully) stabilise the core.
By my probably flawed calculations, the Aurora is approx. 1280m long, a third as wide and 400m tall, -100m for the bridge. As the ship is an ellipsoid it has about 107.2 million m3 in volume spread across what looks like six decks. Let’s say that the accessible area for a crew member is a quarter and the rest is for the phasegate and other cargo, leaving 26.8 million m3 for crew.
With only a crew of 148, this means that this is a skeleton crew or the ship is so advanced there doesn’t need to be that many people onboard. Since the ship only has quarters for 150 as per the ship’s PDA entry, the latter is likely the case.
On a ship this large and only 157 people onboard, each person has more than 181,000 m3 to themselves. To say that they were tripping over each other is egregious. They might not even have seen another person until reaching the life-pods.
I have to say, it is rather strange that a ship this big only has 148 crew. Modern naval ships nowhere near the size of the Aurora have up to 400 crew. And it’s not like this is a simple cargo ship, this is a top of the line capital ship, supposedly on a self-contained, three year mission.
At least looking at it this way, Ryley’s title of Non-Essential Systems Maintenance Chief means he is the person in charge of Non-essential systems maintenance and not a redundant crew member since Alterra Cleary hates redundancy.
Speaking of redundancy, with only 50 life-pods onboard and 2 people per pod, only 100 people could safely escape the Aurora in case of an, this much is obvious. However, as you pointed out in the video, there are going to be pods that leave at non-capacity, and pods that could experience a malfunction, massive gun or not. That means that even a minimum of 75 pods isn’t enough since at the time of the game, there were 9 extra passengers onboard. Really a ship this large needs at least 25% more life-pods than max capacity spread out over the ship so that they are more accessible and less likely to experience a collective catastrophe. But, you have to admire the ship’s ventilation systems.
From where I’m sitting, this game was rigged from the start.
Bro did really took his time writing this 😂. But it's true do.
Am I the only person who noticed the hangar on top of the arouras stern Near where the bridge is located
@@angrynoodle5572 I also saw it but I thought there aren't any people in there and even if there was they'd be dead until now by the bacteria on 4546B
my really low effort hypotesis is that the crew has only the job of maintenance and basic control on the machinery. The rest is done by the ship itself and thus you don't need that many people.... ofcourse the pod number argument is right, we have to consider even the case of the ship rescuing others and so the number of people that can be onboard could rise a lot.
Only lifepods 1-25 launched as read in the ships blackbox so half of his calculations are incorrect
Aurora crashed at crazy speeds and 150 people for a 1km long ship makes it hard for people to even see each other when running through the ship
1km isn’t really that big, I mean for example in Star Trek many ships were over 300m long and they still knew everybody
I think it’s very likely most of this is true especially since it says the cave crawlers have human tissues in their digestive track so there had to have been some survivors
It never says that the cave crawlers do it says that lifeforms in the area do which intends the reaper nearby from the remains of lifepod 4
@@joeburnover4110 I don't think the PDA has that far of a range. It only plays the messages when you get in the designated areas, which I know is for gameplay but I also took it as it having limited scanning ability. So it would have to be talking about the cave crawlers - the message only play once you're nearly inside the Aurora
The PDA has no way of knowing if those people the cave crawlers ate were alive at the time. Given how many must have died in the crash, and the lack of any corpses, I would suggest the cave crawlers likely simply scavenged the dead.
@@YouthRightsRadical that's what i am thinking
@@samanthal.8947 "detecting multiple leviathan class lifeforms in the area" plays when entering one of the biomes even when you cant see or hear them, meaning they aren't near you
It is hard to believe that no one on the ship would have survived, at least until the explosion, because there is a lot less food and water than there should be on board
There are large sections of the aroura we cant actully acsess either
@@garyslayton8340 That is true, and once the player repairs the Drive Core leaks, there would be a lot less radiation in the area, making it safer to travel and that paired with new pathways opened up with the explosion may mean people could eventually make it out and while they may loose more people to the Reapers, could make it to the Safe Shallows, especially if they could find some intact/easily patched up vehicles that can work underwater, which we do know exist with things like the Prawn Suits being found onboard. And once in the Safe Shallows they'd likely come across signs of the player and more importantly the young Sea Emperors (Assuming this is after we leave 4546B), allowing them access to Enzyme 42, so the disease problem would be solved. After that it would only be a matter of time until either rescue comes or the construction of additional Neptune Escape Rockets, possibly even reusing some of our abandoned structures, resources, and possibly even data to do so.
@@nicholasholladay-elser7307imagine getting out of a crashed ship and seeing your non essential chief building pp shaped bases everywhere
@@CASA-dy4vs Well after having a close encounter with Sammy the Reaper, I'd still take the base, pp shaped or not.
The condition inside the Aurora could have looked much better then it had when we explored it. Because we could only do so after it detonates
Since khaara is present in the water, the Aurora was compromised the instant it made contact with the surface. There is a slight chance that the khaara is also airborne, which would have rendered the ship compromised in the event of a single minute hull breach
Seeing how the degasi crew wasnt infected until months underwater and the blood crawlers on the surfaces arent infected it seems it isnt airborne
@@Tenderofyggdrasil Good point
The bacterium itself might not be airborne, but the Aurora would likely have kicked up a ton of water vapour and spray into the air on impact, meaning a good number of water droplets would probably be breathed in by survivors
@@WillowWisp2112yum!
I mean even if anyone lived long enough to see it they were all on a timer anyway. I imagine that the drive core exploding as we witness from outside would’ve killed anyone left alive in there.
So while we only find 9 life pods, we know that lifepods 1-25 all launched so presumably there’s some people who met a very bad fate in the void
Every story in Subnautica is literally "and then everybody died. The End."
fr
Except for that one guy with the billion credit debt
The funny thing is the pawnsuts still survived after the explosion there might have been a chance to tank the explosion and never touch the water and bacteria.
the reactor blew up, u think someone survived?
They were non functional, after bomb.
Do you know what pisses me off the most about this game? It's that in the prawn suit Bay there's like four basically mint prawn suits where you basically could have just put them all together into one without having to craft it. Like bruh gimme
When you get on the Aurora for the first time after it exploded the pda says "research shows their are parts of human tissues scattered around" something similar along those lines.
It was a quote saying the cave crawlers were eating the corpses of the dead crew.
@@partiallyfrozen3425delicious delicacy
The possibility that some of the crew survived the initial crash is likely, but the precense of the reapers most likely killed many who tried to escape. The rest most likely succumbed to the smoke inhalation and the chances that any of them got off the ship and survived the entire game is about 0 due to Warpers confirming through likely scanning that the player is is the only survivor unaccounted for, meaning the other survivors most likely died.
(Side note, the warpers obviosily didn’t scan sector zero so the only way another survived is if somehow a pod was jettisoned above sector zero.)
I like this. Nice lore theory and survival story for the people!
I think that it would have been cool if an expansion was added to subnautica that
gave the players much more of the aurora to explore, maybe even giving the destroyed bridge section its own interior or life pod launch bays or more lore surrounding the players character in his quarters or in various pdas where we finally get to hear him speak, even if it’s only a recording.
Honestly the aurora is such a key piece of the story of subnautica that feels almost forgotten. There is so much in the ship we’ve never seen before. Not only the cut off back half, but also the front most section that got blown to bits when the aurora explodes.
Thing is you forgot about the BIG explosion that allows you to go into the Aurora that is what caused the inside to look like that not the crash the things being everywhere will still be the same
The lifepods could most likely be filled with up to 3-4 people, but the 1 or 2 not sitting on one of the seats would most likely die or get injured from the splashdown.
If you lay flat like falling on a free fall elevator you would probably survive since your bodies increased surface area would disperse a lot of the impact evenly
I always wondered this but never had the motivation thanks breathtaker
No problem, also fancy running into you in that livestream the other night :)
I don't think there could've been survivors because when you leave the lifepod it says that there are zero signs of life aboard the Aurora
Well your character was unconscious for hours, by the time you wake up and get your feet wet their already dead
The scanner surely can’t go past certain materials in the hull since the pda would be using the life pods less powerful scanners unlike the auroras scanners which probably would be able to penetrate every material
Pretty interesting theory. Most likely true too. I really liked the video.
You are extremely underrated
Very cool video + new sub
Thanks! Welcome Aboard:)
If this was the case, i still can't get this thought out of my mind. That is, if the survivors died inside of Aurora, why can't we find their bodies?
Or, i guess..... Maybe their bodies are evaporated by the nuclear blast 😂
There are large sections we can't even explore because of the explosion.
In the game those areas are just empty space because you don't go there.
1:04 you forget the fact, that the lifepods on one side got incapacitated when the aurora got hit. So 25 lifepods, that actually may have launched.
Barely anyone noticed this but why he said about people in the life pods he there was 1.57 basically one and a half of someone where was the other half
Uh there are some things that make it unlikely for the crew and passengers to have survived, first is the explosion seen in the intro wether or not it's from the gun doesn't really matter i think most died through that and the impact possibly would have killed even more and with the surface explosion i can see it being impossible for there being any survivors on the aurora post surface explosion.. so changes are they never even got hit by the crabs, the radiation or the karaa
If there were a few more survivors still alive at the end. The Quantum Detonation would have killed off the last of them!
Aurora explosion "walks into the room" forget about me.
If the PDA’s “zero human life signs detected” also refers to the aurora itself, then they were all dead by then anyway 🤣
My guess is that the guys who got radiation suits managed to survive until the explosion so maybe the pda malfunctioned and couldn't verify the leftovers inside the Aurora...
bro you gonna get popular af
My question is, can you surbive there after repairong the reactors? Can you put a fabricator on a wall in the captain's quarters? Can you build a base in the reactor room or prawn bay?
This also isn’t to mention that if most of the crew was still alive after planet fall, they would mostly have been wiped out because of the quantum detonation of the drive core.
“Yay, We survived the plague!”
BOOM
And that was the end of their existence
we can see the were the pods are shot idk why that came to my mind

but yet its conceivable that at the time of the player's departure someone could still be alive in the back of the ship,while blocked it appears mostly undamaged
Not to mention the fact that even if someone did survive long enough they'd die to the explosion of the drive core
The ship exploded on the second day after the crash... not enough time for the kharaa to do its thing. Nor the radiation.
Problem is: Although cave crawlers are known to traverse water in small amounts, they are mainly land creatures. That being said, some theories also say that Kharra turns you *into* the crab-like animals.
Where’s that .56 of a person in a lifepod? Lol, just kidding. Nice theory btw
I think you might hit 100k subs one day and get a silver play button which less than 0.05 per cent of people have
Very cool stories
Thanks
What about any dead bodies? Why are there no remains?
When you board the Aroura, the PDA states that the Cave Crawlers have been consuming human remains. So they literally ate every single body on the ship.
@@sherrykathman3309yum!
I hsvent seen a single comment about this but wouldnt Riley see their corpses or skeletons after they died when Riley got onto the aurora after the explosion?
Only that little people can fit inside that big ship damn
Not after the Drive core detonated, that’s for sure.
I think possibly most of damage in Aurora was caused by explosion that opened access for you
Basically the aurora survivors got to find out what happened to Amelia Earhart the hard way.
Doesn't it take about a week for kharaa to kill someone? I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure the poor lads got killed in the explosion, not kharaa. I do understand the radiation though.
Wait but weren't there 157 People in total on board?
Before anyone ejected, yes
Good video, but those voice cracks got me dead
Am i the only one who noticed that the top of the reactors are just cyclops engines
There’s a reason subnautica is not known for its lore
Care to explain? "spooky underwater game" is what it's most known for sure, but the lore is also very good
@@user-bv7zo6vd4mwe should lowkey get a star citizen like game where we can buy big ships and go explore entire planets like star citizen and space engineers, might need a mid-high range pc and console but it would be better than nothing
Let's face it: These poor saps probably would've had an easier time at Black Mesa or Apeture Science. Not necessarily surviving, but they probably would've died quicker.
Why would they have radiation suits and we wouldn’t???
one thing i wonder whate are those big powercell lookings on the aurora called?
Guess they're just big batteries
One of the life pods I forgot their name on of them could have survived if they didn’t go back for her
I think that was Lifepod 6?
lets not forget the 2 people who needlessly died because the one guy tried rigging a powercell to a seaglide to "increase efficiency" and exploded due to being overloaded.
didn't half of the life pods get blown up by the quarantine enforcement platform?
I like the idea of the game, it just seems weird that each life pod was made with stuff that can turn stuff into stuff. find enough ore and you can make miles of tunnels and tubes from...a life pod.
Are there really people left alive, I didn't see anyone in the whole game. Just felt like a Sim City or something, but on an alien planet. With that in mind I gave up. And years later I haven't heard of an ending so it must not have one worth talking about except to those more on the spectrum than me.
I’m convinced this comment is rage bait. It’s too stupid.
the aurora looks way too big for only 157 people
And then if there body weren’t eaten by the cave crawlers they were blown to bits along with any and all cave crawlers nearby when the drive core exploded so they we’re screwed even if they weren’t sick and had the radiation suits to protect from the radiation it wouldn’t of matter sense aurora go boom so in conclusion they we’re all screwed ether way
that things could carry 15000 not 150💀💀
bro has lag on the lowest setting
how log can you make a sea truck
Cave crawlers weren’t creepy to me Until I got inside the aurora and found out they were eating people. I’d take being bitten in half or blown up over that for sure. Death by 1000 cuts🤢
Radiation: nah I'd win
So I don’t think subnautica is that scary like what I mean is what people say you know anyway when I watch these story’s on subnautica I get terrified of the game so yeah thanks for making this so my scardyness can go up
Reminds me off the people who were on the upper floors during 9/11
What about the radiation
the game says they were eaten by leviatans
what about the radiation
I'm gonna have to go with no. Why? The radiation.
The Aurora becomes irradiated almost immediately upon crashing down, and that radiation is hard enough to kill within hours (minutes, but the day is only minutes long, so hours). Nobody survived on the Aurora. The captain died on impact, despite being the best positioned to survive if bracing to survive was possible. Upon splashdown, the drive core was damaged and the area was flooded with radiation, radiation which is hard enough to kill the player within minutes. With no crafting machines available, they couldn't manufacture any radiation suits. If anyone did somehow engineer a solution to survive a crash that killed the captain, they died in the radiation.
Now, in the water, the story is _better_ but still not good. No matter where you go, the lifepods are abandoned, and the survivors long gone. Despite continuously recieving messages, you'll never find the crew. No matter where you build a base, you'll never find the crew. The game wants you to believe there is someone still out there, up until between day 40 and day 50, where you'll get a new message from the warper hunter units that all new targets have been eliminated but 1, so clearly someone _was_ doing okay up to a point, but that eventually ended. Too bad they leave no traces of themselves behind. I can only guess maybe they were living on an island, because there is no evidence of construction anywhere that isn't you or the previous mongolian crash, and there is no way anyone survived in the open ocean without a lifepod (which yours is the only one that successfully deployed).
I think _maybe_ it was CTO Yu. It wasn't XO Keen. They were competent enough to make it to the floater island, and then attempt a swim to the aurora. Unfortunately, they tried for a straight shot, and, well, the map mod indicates 4 reapers on that path. And one of those is the _mean_ reaper. (Yeah, yeah, all the reapers are monsters, but there's _one_ that is programmed extra mean. It's got this massive box of hate where if you stick one toe in, it's being express mailed to eat your face, and by god does that bastard _chase.)_
