Will the submarine taken to show the wreckage of Titanic be found? Why hope is decreasing… 5 reasons that tell what are the difficulties

New York: With the Titanic ship, the word sinking seems to have become a destiny. Earlier this ship sank due to an accident which took thousands of lives. Now the tourist submarine Titan, which went to see this sunken ship in the depths of the Atlantic Ocean, went missing on Sunday. There were five people in it. Whose search is on. But this work is so complex and full of intricacies that many obstacles have arisen in the effort to save the five people.

In fact, in any search and rescue operation at sea, weather conditions, lack of light at night, sea conditions and water temperature are the factors that determine whether sailors or tourists can be found and rescued. No. There are many reasons for the success of rescue under the sea waves which are difficult and complex.

Why is Titan hard to find?
The first and most important task is to find Titan. In fact, vehicles going under water have an acoustic device called a pinger. Through the sound waves emanating from it, the rescuers locate the vehicle under water. It is not clear what Titan has. On this, Titan was supposed to take two and a half hours to reach the wreckage of the ship, but it lost contact within just 1 hour, 45 minutes.

mechanical fault can also be a reason
There could be a problem with Titan’s communication equipment or its ballast system could be faulty. The ballast system controls the descent and ascent of the submarine. When the submarine goes down, it helps to fill the water in the tank and bring it to the surface by taking out the water while coming up.

difficult to detect due to depth
Even if it is known that the submarine is on the bottom, it is still very difficult for rescuers to reach them due to the great depth. Because divers’ equipment only allows them to go to a certain depth. In fact, divers who are wearing special equipment and breathing air mixed with helium, can only go to a depth of a few hundred feet with it. Before that they will have to spend a lot of time to reduce the pressure before coming up. At the same time, after a depth of a few hundred feet, even the sunlight does not reach inside the water. That is, the rule of darkness prevails there. There is talk of reaching some 100 feet here and Titanic is lying at a depth of 14,000 feet inside the sea. To reach where humans have only the support of a submarine with special equipment, which keeps them warm and dry as well as provides air for breath.

a way to reach titan
In such a situation, is there no way to reach Titan? Actually it is not so, there is a possible way in such a situation. A vehicle that goes deep into the water without humans and is operated remotely. The US Navy has a vehicle that is remotely operated. But it has been used only to extract the goods lying in the seabed. It was first used in early 2022 to extract the crashed F-35 Joint Strike Fighter located at about 12,400 feet in the South China Sea. With the help of this vehicle named CURV-21, a depth of 20,000 feet can be reached.

Distance is also a hindrance, time is also less
The Navy’s deepest diving robot has the power to go inside, but reaching the spot itself is fraught with difficulties. Actually CURV-21 is about 370 miles away from the spot. And the speed of the ship that can bring it is not more than 20 miles per hour.

Reports suggest that Titan can keep five of its sailors alive under water for only 96 hours. After this, if the Titan’s battery runs out, the heaters will not be able to run and the people inside can suffer hypothermia (extremely low body temperature).
