Missing Argentine Sub With 44 Crew Found 2,600ft Under Ocean A Year After(Pics) by Explorers(m): 6:18pm On Nov 17, 2018 |
An Argentine submarine that went missing almost exactly one year ago has been found at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. The Argentine Navy and Defense Ministry confirmed late Friday evening that the remains of the ARA San Juan submarine had been located in the south Atlantic Ocean at a depth of about 800 meters (approximately a half mile), about 700 miles due east of the Argentine city of Puerto Madryn. The families of the 44 crew members who perished in the accident have been summoned to Mar del Plata Naval Base to be officially informed this weekend.Officials in the South American country lost radio contact with the San Juan on Nov. 15, 2017 and were unable to locate the missing sub in following days and months. The sub was discovered Friday by U.S. company Ocean Infinity, which was in charge of the search operation. The company sent out mini-submarines to the seabed and one returned with definitive photo evidence of the wreckage of the submarine. In the deal the Houston-based company made with the Argentine government, finding the wreckage of the submarine would trigger a payment of $7.5 million. The same company struck a similar deal with the Malaysian government to find Malaysia Airlines flight 370 earlier this year. The submarine had reported a problem with its batteries in its final communication of November 15. Nearly 10 days later, the navy confirmed there had been an explosion on board, which experts said was likely linked to the battery problem. An air and sea search involved units from 13 countries but the majority withdrew before the end of 2017.

Blakjewelry: Well not really. If there is a decompression at a submerged depth, the hull collapses within milliseconds. Think of a balloon popping, but in reverse. So it's a quick and painless way to die. Maybe for the family and friends yes, since you'll never recover a body. |
