james, i appreciate you joining us. someone who s devoted his life to exploration as you have in many wasz under the sea, i m wondering what s going through your mind tonight. well, thanks, anderson. i mean, obviously we re all we re all kind of heartsick from the outcome of this. and i ve been living with it for a few days now as some of my other colleagues in the deep submergence community. i was out on a ship myself when the event happened on sunday. the first i heard of it was monday morning. i immediately got on my network because it s, you know, a very small community in the deep submergence group. and found out some information within about a half hour that they had lost coms and they had lost tracking sometimeimultaneo. the only scenario i could come up with in my mind that could account for that was an implosion, a shock wave event so powerful that it actually took out a secondary system that has its own pressure vessel and its own battery power supply, which is the transp
