They dropped the dive weights and were trying to emergency ascend just before contact was lost.
So they knew it was happening and heard the creaking and groaning before the big boom violently disintegrated them in an instant.
The company knew this and still didn't contact authorities for 8 hours. Nearby sonar buoys picked up the explosion, so their fate was known on Monday and the whole week has just been theater to feed the media frenzy.

"We understand from inside the community that they had dropped their ascent weights and they were coming up, trying to manage an emergency," he said.

But it wasn't reported as missing to the US Coast Guard until 5.40pm, eight hours later. Canada's Coast Guard wasn't alerted until even later - 9.13pm on Sunday night.

For example, in fiber-reinforced plastics, sheets of high strength reinforcement (e.g., carbon fiber, fiberglass) are bound together by a much weaker polymer matrix (e.g., epoxy).

Most likely (((fellow White))) male.
Someone posted an image the other day discussing his jewish faith as it related to oceanic exploration. Can't seem to find it.
I did find a few articles about how he was married to a jewess who descended from kike Titanic passengers.
Found this other article stating he's a kike with no source info.

SR was and engineer and pilot. The board of Oceangate was pretty heavy in old white guys with engineering, physics, piloting, military backgrounds. https://archive.is/jiUIP
Looks like theres one jew on the board and he’s the lawyer. Buck stops where?
Unless theres some brand new unheard discovery about the chain of events, this fuck up was caused by white guys that forgot to cross their Ts— not the eye candy OP posted. And probably not the jew’s fault either. The iew’s not in charge of carbon fiber hull integrity, you know?

In any case, the point of the image was more about what a tweet like this says about the priorities of the company and its CEO, than about what each of these women did or didn't do individually. That's why I posted it in Diversity, rather than Women or something like that. Of course, you showing up to play Vagina Defense League is quite predictable.

But it really appears as though the fault of this disaster lies with the white male CEO Stockton Rush, who decided to be a nigger about quality control. So far, it does not look to me like muh wahmen caused this failure at all. You think these cupcakes didnt make a call to HQ right away? Bet the decision to delay contacting the coast guard was not made by them.

No, he decided to be a jew about quality control, probably because he was one.

These Oceangate faggots could have simply copied every aspect of this mission and been wildly successful. It probably would have cost much less than a dumbass carbon fiber vessel too. Pathetic.

There were also a few interviews with a family friend on Sky News, I think, which were very informative. I forget his name, but he had a lot of interesting info because he was in direct contact with rescue services.

Layered carbon fiber composite absolutely does fail gradually. By design and as expected, to the point that one of the safety features was to detect this gradual failure with sound detectors, before the sound was loud enough to hear. Clearly they underestimated how fast the failure would progress, and overestimated how much of a head start the early warning would give them. But it did fail gradually, and was audible before the end.
The implosion was nearly instant, once it happened. The failure leading up to it was not.

However, leading up to it, the carbon fiber composite hull would have made sounds. It was 5 inches thick, consisting of many layers of carbon fiber set within some form of epoxy. Similar to the glass fiber hulls of most modern yachts. As the pressure of the water delaminated the layers, gradually tearing them from each other as it forced its way in, it will have made a lot of increasingly loud noises, before enough of the layers were compromised to cause the catastrophic implosion.
One of the "safety features" of the sub were sound detectors attached to the inside of the hull. The idea was to pick up these sounds early, before they were audible, to provide enough time to ascend before it was too late. Clearly, this didn't work out. Towards the end, you wouldn't need a sound detector to know what is happening.
James Cameron had a lot of insider info on this as it was unfolding, and talked quite a bit about it to various news outlets after they found the wreckage:
