A submersible that vanished in waters off Canada during a tourism expedition to explore the Titanic could have as little as 70 hours of oxygen left, with a British billionaire among those on board.
Well, it is like space exploration. There are scientists, engineers and those who dream to be them. It is just part of humanity that we love going on adventures, that’s the same for rich and poor. Only that some are more risk tolerated and some less

That’s true but he’s among 4 other people who do have social value.
The company that provides these tours uses the money to also perform scientific research on the Titanic.
What ‘scientific research’ is there that needs to be done on the Titanic in 2023? That’s an obvious smokeshow.
