The US rejected help from another source
that has the means for rescue. Hell yes
red tape. This rescue was told to stand
down. A full 24 hours prior to current
efforts.
10,000 square miles? How would that
submersible have the capability to drift
5,000 miles in any direction given ocean
current speeds and available oxygen supplies
aboard. These people are still breathing,
Pray the current efforts are successful.

10000 sq mi = (100 mi x 100 mi).
I’m guessing 50 mi in each direction from the point where they went down. Does that sound reasonable?

Ummmm, 10,000 square miles = 100 linear miles x 100 linear miles. Think of a square grid 100 miles long on each side.

Yes, pray the current efforts are successful.
