At Attractions About the Titanic, Pondering the Fate of the Titan

 潛艇Titan探索鐵達尼號期間失蹤，原來案中有案：

Teledyne的CEO Stockton Rush想讓團隊更年輕，不受老一套的技術局限設計，故拒絕聘請50歲有經驗的白人工程師，交由25歲畢業生主理，為潛艇的設計製造注入「啟發性」。

另一個事實令一些工程專科的網民震驚——潛艇的控制器居然是一個Logitec F710藍牙無線手掣，連USB接頭也沒有，反映設計者沒有風險管理概念。

CEO吹噓除了船體以外，潛艇上所有零件都是輕易可以買得到的現成東西。

負責安全管理的專家曾經指出內膽的碳纖維桶艙不適用於潛艇用途，然後被解僱。

潛艇未曾在4000米深的海底進行測試。

潛艇不設連接水上人員的通話系統，因為CEO不喜歡在執行任務時被外界干擾。

At Attractions About the Titanic, Pondering the Fate of the Titan

More than a century after the Titanic sank, its story is still told in exhibitions. But those who went this week had a newer disaster to consider.

The next day, Mr. Stanley wrote an email in which he detailed his concerns to Stockton Rush, the chief executive of OceanGate Expeditions, who was also on board the Titan for the dive, urging Mr. Rush to cancel the expeditions to the wreck of the Titanic that were planned for that summer.

“A useful thought exercise here would be to imagine the removal of the variables of the investors, the eager mission scientists, your team hungry for success, the press releases already announcing this summer’s dive schedule,” wrote Mr. Stanley, according to a copy of the email seen by The New York Times. “Imagine this project was self funded and on your own schedule. Would you consider taking dozens of other people to the Titanic before you truly knew the source of those sounds??”

The U.S. Coast Guard said on Thursday that a remote-controlled vehicle found debris from the Titan near the wreckage of the Titanic, ending a four-day, multinational search for the 22-foot watercraft that had captivated people worldwide. Mr. Rush was piloting the Titan and was among the five people on board who were killed. The Titan’s final voyage would have been its 14th expedition to the Titanic’s wreckage.
