Titanic sub: How oxygen could be conserved on board – BBC News

Published

on



As the search for the missing OceanGate Titan submarine enters a “critical” stage, what could the passengers on board be experiencing?

Dr Sarah Spelsberg, medical lead on the underwater research mission Project Neptune 100, explains how the experience of three of the five people within the vessel could be helping to conserve oxygen for longer.

Dr Spelsberg also discusses the chances of hypothermia and why decompression of the sub is unlikely, but would be “catastrophic” if experienced.

    Oxygen should last indefinately, when nobody is breathing it.

    Pro tip: You can easily double or even triple your oxygen supply by strangulating your fellow travelers.

    The fact that there are no strong regulations to oversee such activities is a big fail on the side of the government. I don't think the CEO should be blamed as much. A lot of things could go wrong down there that are beyond human control

    I really hope they saw this video so they would know how to conserve oxygen on board

    Yea they can just stop breathing, no worries. so much oxygen. Matter of fact if they just let all the water in they can freeze solid then be brought to the surface and thawed out.

    spectrum sub operations could cause a severe stress on the food and beverages a,Board ships

    so and so,s told me the sub operator was on the mental spectrum and was a heavy driver when pressing the break paddle could cause a stiff necked

    Was that French ship that can reach the seabed the one that fished AF 447 up?

    What I find even more sad is the fact that 9 million people die of starvation around the world every year and yet, the world is holding their collective breath for five people in a sub and countries are spending literally millions of dollars per day to search for and recover their remains. Weird, isn't it.

    It will indeed be a Miracle if they are found… May God have Mercy 🙏

    Hopefully their families will give millions $$ to those companies who assisted in the search.

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.
