The only hope of saving those who are surviving the final round of their fight against death in the submerged Titan, which has been stranded since last Sunday, is a French diving robot called Victor 6000, described as the only one. in a world able to dive to where the Titan broke near the wreckage of the Titanic. At a depth of 3800 meters under the waters of the Atlantic Ocean, and retrieve from where it was lost.
The Victor 6000, weighing 4 tons, has a sinking speed of 1.5 knots or 2778 meters per hour, can dive to a depth of 20,000 feet, equivalent to 6000 meters, and takes 4 hours to reach a depth of 6.7 meters. Titan, then rise to its surface. Water so that its five passengers can breathe air naturally, at a time when they no longer have enough oxygen until Thursday morning, American Eastern Time, according to a report published today by the British newspaper “The Times” .
And the famous French diver arrived yesterday, Wednesday, aboard the ship L’Atalante, which is operated by those who operate it remotely, about which Al-Arabiya.net read in his biography that he belongs to the “French Research Institute for the Exploitation of the Seas” , known by the letters FREMER as an abbreviation of its long name, and it will start at dawn on Thursday US time. last Tuesday, the first and last serious attempt to save those in danger of death by suffocation, on the same day.
Time is running out
And what the Victor 6000 will do, thanks to the work of 25 specialists aboard the mother ship L’Atalante, is to move its arms and pull cables to tie the underwater “Titan” weighing more than 10 tons in order to be pulled out. from the ship to the surface, and the prisoners are taken out.
It appears from Western media coverage of the submarine’s predicament that time has become so compressed that only one rescue operation is allowed, the first and last via the Victor 6000, at least which can also be inferred from Lieutenant Jamie Frederick of Beregovaya the US guard said when he said at a press conference held last Tuesday that the international search mission would continue for another 48 hours, “because it’s a 100% search and rescue mission, and when you’re in the middle of this kind of operation, you have there is always hope,” adding that the deployment of the French groups would take place as soon as they arrived.
The lieutenant reported that 5 ships and various aircraft were scouring the Atlantic Ocean area of 16 thousand square kilometers, and he expects the arrival of 5 more ships within the next two days, including the arrival of the French L’Atalante arrived at the site around midnight Wednesday US time with a robot- diver on board.
