      Rush knew the dangers involved but insisted on using his unproven design, I'm guessing because it was quite a bit lighter than steel- But as we found out also weaker than steel. Of course when lives are on the line you MUST go with a tried & true design. Period.

      The full quote is generally reasonable. Yes, every action in life is a risk-reward analysis, and the only way to absolutely minimize risk is to never leave your bed. You take a risk taking a shower, you take a risk cooking, leaving the house, etc etc. All completely true, at some point safety is just pure waste. Where he failed was at the part of "breaking all the rules being just as safe." The goal should be more efficiently follow the idiot-proofing rules, not throw them out...

      Also fails to elaborate that commercial subs fall into two categories - shallow water for engineering or tourism, and deep water scientific, and they're worlds apart in terms of design, cost, and usage.
      What he tried to do was bodge the first category design and build into the second category usage.

      I don't think removing the fence was the issue. The issue was they never really tested the submersible. They should have made it do like 100+ downs then ups, then cut the thing in half and examined it. Engineers at the company wanted to do that, but were told it would be too expensive. There's nothing wrong with innovating, they just weren't checking their work. If you look at like a spaceX rocket, they're doing crazy new things, and destructively test vehicles to find out what to fix next. Oceangate could have done something similar and created a truly innovative vehicle. I'm sure the final thing would have been quite a bit more reinforced than the Titan, but it would have been safer.

      All the jokes aside, Stockton did ask one interesting question: "Could a carbon fibre hull work for depth diving."
      From an engineering and scientific perspective, this is an interesting question. It's just unfortunate that Rush and his team of cavalier cowboys, instead of a competent team of engineers and carbon fibre experts, took a swing at it.
      From what I've read, the carbon fibre winding that was used for the Titan hull was significantly weakened because of the single direction of the winding - it would have been stronger in a diamond pattern but that would have significantly increased cost (Stockton clearly was pennypinching)
      Hopefully some professionals take up this challenge and answer this question in the future

      Also, from my understanding, the deal with carbon fiber is that it's not as easy to find flaws or cracks in the haul unlike steel.
      On steel hauls they can use X-ray sensors as well as other methods to find micro cracks withIN the steel itself, cracks that might not be visible on the surface but is present within the metal itself.
      I also heard that basically the very first dive is pretty much the strongest the haul is ever going to be (with microfiber), but after repeated dives ANY micro cracks in the microfiber haul are _WAY_ more dangerous to the structure because of the characteristics of MF.
      Micro cracks aren't wanted at all, but if they showed up in steel then at least the structure is still very strong. In micro fiber it's critical.

There's a lot of things we do that have a little bit of elevated risk, something you can't account for, or something that would be exceedingly expensive to account for (e.g. we could make cars almost perfectly safe if we limit the speeds to 15mph everywhere!

      We are 92M miles away, from the sun, which could become around 100M miles in diameter when it becomes a red giant. bit of a margin of error, but let's assume it will be 92 ish, ie the surface of the red giant will be very close to earth's orbit.
      the red giants we know about, range between 4500-8500F at surface temp. Let's assume our sun will be the lower range of that.
      The Earth has some pure molten metals in the center, but outside, its full of refractory oxides - alumina, silica, and trace metal oxides. The boiling point temperature for all of those is quite high, around 4000-6000F. If we stay below that temperature, we will essentially have a very long (millions of years) kiln firing of the entire planet, the ingredients of which .. add up to terracotta clay.
      When you fire clay "as intended" it is fully opaque, but when you overfire it, it turns into a glassy obsidian substance (you can do this with an acetylene torch around 6000F).
      If the clay doesn't have too much alumina and iron, it will be transparent, but the iron gives it a green hue (thanks to boron), blue (thanks to titanium and phosphorus) or just brown (oxygen.)

      Rush has contributed greatly to the diving community. Now others know what not to do. He gave it his all as well as four of his friends for the pursuit of knowledge and shortcut engineering that will come in handy for generations of engineers to come. If I ever build a submersible I will definitely take a look see at Rushes designs so I will be better informed on what mistakes to not make. A lot of people will be appreciative for his contribution to the field. Example: We have learned to not take over inflated egos down to that depth because it leads to all kinds of problems.

      The media loves billionaires and ESPECIALLY pseudo-futurist tech bro billionaires who promise all the cool looking stuff we see in science fiction. Rarely do they actually do the due diligence of questioning or verifying the claims of these billionaires. They just uncritically glaze them parroting whatever nonsense they put out because it _sounds_ cool. Look at Elon Musk for heaven’s sake! A total snake oil fraud who fancies himself as an engineer but profits off of the designs and work of other actually qualified people. What happens when he personally has a lot of say on a project?

      @@charlesmiller8107 The *real* contribution of his will be *how* he at all managed to build this thing legally thanks to a lot of loopholes. Several knowledgeable people voiced their concern and were worried *before* the disaster but to no avail. First and most foremost he operated a deep-sea submersible which had *not* been independently tested in the rigorous safety tests proper deep-sea submersibles are and that *alone* should have made his operation *illegal* .
      From what I've read he bypassed all that by having the passengers sign a waiver that they "knew" they entered an "experimental design". Not sure it said it had not gone through the regular tests required for classification but even so I doubt Stockton Rush's customers actually read the entire waiver or gave much thought about what they actually signed (a legal pretext freeing Stockton Rush from any responsibility of their deaths).
      Another thing: In order to bypass regulations he arbitrarily made his passengers "mission specialists" so they in essence became trained researches overnight. *What a joke* .
      We live in a world where you have to do your homework. Be it buying a new car, house, booking a trip, investing in X, Y or Z... and especially so when you embark on a particularly dangerous deep sea dive.
      Stockton Rush should *never* have gotten away with it. So his real contribution is all the questions and all analyzing which will reveal how this was allowed to happen at all in 2023.

    Rush is legitimately responsible for the negligent homicide of those passengers. Him being smug while saying “submarines are the safest vehicles on the planet” and then deciding that all of these safety measures are unnecessary is proof that he’s nowhere near as smart as he thought he was. Almost every story about the Titanic focuses on the hubris of man and the proclamation that it’s “unsinkable.” Not once did he appreciate the irony of his own ego.

      Actually, there could be. If no outside factors change it, the Sun will swallow Earth but then it's too small to go supernova. So it will go into a blue dwarf and finally go out. The Earth is a big ball of magma with a thin crust. The Sun will likely extinguish all life and melt the rock but once it burns off all helium the outside of Earth could cool off and become a rock again.
