>>211460109netflix doc showed conclusively that after the 80th dive, when they mentioned a particularly loud bang on ascent (not even under extreme pressure they were like 10 feet deep according to a """mission specialist"""), the "acoustic monitoring system" showed a MASSIVE upswing in pops after that point in subsequent dives.
rush's monitoring system would have actually prevented the inevitable implosion if they had reacted to it, as insane as that is (it's demonstrated that they are NEVER aware of when the ultimate implosion is coming in all tests despite having an acoustic monitoring system rigged up for all of them, basically meaning the monitoring system is useless) but in the larger, utilized version of the craft, it actually did show a significant jump in carbon fiber failure events. they just straight up ignored it at that point, which is truly incredible but not shocking when you see what an ass the man was.
but to be clear, the popping and cracking sounds were demonstrably more frequent (an order of magnitude more frequent) and consistently at the loudest pops recorded previously in every single dive after the 80th, so no, based on actual data, you are definitively wrong. the fact that you assume you know more about how carbon fiber behaves under pressure, when literally every single person in the doc mentions specifically that nobody knows exactly how it will behave BECAUSE NOBODY HAS DONE IT BEFORE really speaks to how fucking confidently stupid the average person "weighing on" on this shit, and any major event really, truly is.
