1 week after a billionaire imploded 5 people, another is set to take people to space.
A deal at only $450,000 per person!

He also has a lot more regulations to follow than the people at Oceangate since they were operating out of international waters. While there is a Space Force in existence... they really can't do much ATM in terms of search and rescue. |

I'm pondering offering billionaires an exclusive opportunity to see my living room. As far as I know, no billionaires have ever been here. $400,000 will buy them two hours of access.

The 2 things are not remotely the same thing in terms of level of danger. We have a lot of experience putting things in space going back 65+ years, there is very little experience in taking people 2 miles deep in the ocean.

Where would you rather die? Space or 10,000 feet below the sea?

As for the actual flight, there are some definite similarities between Oceangate and Virgin Galactic. They've tested the system out a number of times, but an early version did break apart in mid-air (Frankie redeemed!) and killed one of the pilots. But it's performed reasonably well since, so I hope for the best.

Death under the sea at that depth would be instant. In the case of losing cabin pressure or being ejected into space you have about a minute to ponder everything that went wrong before dying.
If death was inevitable… give me the implosion. If we are just talking about taking a risk with the possibility of death akin to modern astronauts or a military sub taking me down… take me up to space. The explorer in me wants to see the vastness of space… not just as far the little bit of light we have with us allows. Last edited by Mephistopheles Janx; 06-28-2023 at 05:00 PM.. |
