What was really stupid IMHO is that the Titan had no windows so they could only view anything on computer monitors or tv screens inside it. They could have viewed the same thing from the surface with none of the water pressure risk. The whole thing is mind boggling.

Who told you it had no viewport? What do you think that plexiglass dome on the front was for?

It had a large viewport. Helps to read the article.

Just like Everest, it’s so they can say “they” did it. Even with the hundreds of folks who have summited, I can’t say I know or have met any of them. Space travel will be the next incident IMO.

Yes, isn’t that absurd?

More money than good sense.

With a good set of speakers I would rather listen to and view a concert from the comfort of my den. The vantage point is much better and the effort to go is none.

The older I get the more vicariously inclined I become. Remote sensing is the bees knees and I haven’t even yet tried VR goggles.
