  • I agree completely with the controller, it doesn’t really matter what is used to steer the ship, just that it has fail-safes.

    I don’t think resurfacing is the most important part here. Bathyscaphes are normally designed to jettison iron or steel ballasts attached by electromagnet, which allows them to surface due to their natural buoyancy. It’s impossible to say if that’s how the Titan works though, there isn’t a lot of detail available publicly about its design.

    This is a really interesting video to get a take from an experienced submariner that I found really informative - https://youtu.be/4dka29FSZac
