    If they are still alive in it what a nightmare they must be enduring right now, with only like 30hrs of oxygen left.

    I feel like they likely lost pressure or some catastrophic failure and have been dead.

    Or theogotec controller died and they drifted away and haven’t been found.

    Either way it seems really bad for those inside.

      I couldn’t imagine being in a cramped space 2.5 miles under the sea with 4 other people waiting for that time. Horrific comes to mind but I don’t think there is an adequate word for it.

          One of the guided cave tours I’ve done has a moment where they shut off the lights and encourage everyone to be as quiet as possible. Not being able to see the hand in front of your face is interesting for a few seconds, probably terrifying for hours.
