A little more about the kirsk sub: The 23 survivors only survived because they all broke protocol and opened their segments of the sub to get to the very back end of the sub. One of the people was a newlywed with his first child on the way and he had documented the entire thing in his journal that had been recovered off his body, a very hastily scrawled letter was the very last entry in the journal, the letter was to his wife telling her that the water had finally reached the back section of the sub and was rising fast and that she would have to raise their child without him because he knew there was no rescue team coming. The 23 men were plunged into darkness about an hour after the sub had hit the bottom of the sea, only one person had a flashlight on them. The 23 men were stranded in the sub for several days before the water ultimately flooded that final compartment of the sub.

[@johnhudson1545]

The tragedy is that had the Russian federation accepted foreign help minder mind understanding is a lot of those sailors that survived would have been rescued. That is no way for a man to die

What's even sadder about it, is that there were teams who wanted to go down and help yet the help was declined.

[@allenh7835]

@@mlafou 2 sides to every story. I have zero trust in most medias honesty or accuracy.

[@mlafou]

@Allen H I agree that yes two sides to every story. It was known at the time they did have teams from other countries and even very well know dive teams. However, because of Russia's lack of agreement to help get the trapped sub-divers out ultimately resulted in more death. Russia didn't want leaks out on their technology, I get that but they didn't even use their own countries' home teams to help. The notes were found very sad. More lives lost from inaction because they wanted to protect "secrets". Not surprising all countries have lost people due to similar reasons in a variety of ways. It's sad, it sucks and when it comes to rescuing human lives it needs to change.

I worked NASA QA for 10 years in the ‘90’s, and I started on the telemetry boxes for COSTAR. I can honestly say that everyone was holding their breath until the first pics came back after HST was powered up during the 1st Servicing/Repair Mission. After the mirror fiasco and the ultimate success of COSTAR to correct the aberration, all subsequent devices on HST as well as other Space Telescopes launched since Hubble was put in high orbit (including JWST, which should be launched next year to the L2 Orbit point out past the Moon) have had COSTAR-like correction circuits installed to ensure there’s no repeat of HST’s first images. Looking back, while it might’ve seemed like an expensive screwup, it really wound up stimulating optics systems in every business, from hospital imaging to your cell phone. The technology would likely have been developed, but the mistake and the urgency to ensure everything was correct for the repair started that development much, much sooner. I

[@Dingomush]

In your piece about the Hubble Space Telescope I must defend the PerkinElmer company. In NASA’s investigation into the cause of the “astigmatism” that the telescope was displaying they found that the mirror was indeed the wrong shape for the collector and sensor units. But the PerkinElmer company wasn’t to blame as they had wanted to take several crucial quality control steps, including measurements to insure the correct curvature, but that would mean cleaning it, moving it to a different stand, and heating and cooling the material to get the correct measurements to proceed. The outside inspectors said “no”. Because they were running out of time to get the project built and on the stand before the launch date. The guys from PerkinElmer company voiced their concerns many times but the inspectors had them continue. Also, NASA did not come up with the plan to save the telescope. The guys at PerkinElmer came up with the “contact lens theory”. Plus, if they had screwed it up that bad, why would they let them build the fix for it? They said that the “fix lens” was three times more challenging than the mirror was. In the early days, right after the launch, they threw PerkinElmer under the bus so that somebody else could keep eating the jellybeans. I don’t know that they ever said, publicly, who’s job it was to oversee the overseers. Thought I’d throw that in there.

[@xonx209]

I was wondering why the mirror was not tested before being launched.

[@Dingomush]

@@xonx209 Deadlines…..in order to test the mirror it would need to be disassembled, put in a vacuum chamber and cooled down to mimic orbital conditions. They claimed that they didn’t have enough time to make the deadline if testing was needed, so they scrapped it. Even after the company who was grinding it said that it was a crucial step……..

[@holl0918]

Re: B2 Crash. In case anyone is wondering why the B2 didn't use standard pitot tubes for airspeed, it's because they would increase the radar crossection.

[@patrickomeagher9868]

I used to live in Osaka and loved visiting Kobe because it was close and reminds me of Seattle. The owner of one of the private English conversation schools I worked for had moved after surviving that earthquake. She said a lot of the damage was actually due to fire because of all the natural gas lines that ruptured. I myself experienced the big one in 2011 (from several hundred miles away) that caused the Fukushima nuclear power plant disaster. I've been in several earthquakes and that one felt more like being on the deck of a ship in a storm than the usual shaking. The tsunami that the factor 9.0 earthquake had caused overcame the breakwater (that was built to stop tsunamis) and shorted out the generators (and backups) that were not made to function under water. Without power to the cooling pumps, the reactors overheated and some melted down. For a while after, planes weren't even allowed to fly in a large radius around the plant. They had to fly over Russia and approach from the West (coming into Kansai airport from North America anyway). When I first moved to Japan in 2004 I worked for one of the biggest conversation school chains called Nova. Right before I got there the CEO (Sahashi Nozomu) had roughly doubled the number of locations and teachers. The economy went into a recession and (to make a long story short) Nova had spread itself too thin and went bankrupt. Turns out the company hadn't paid the rent on employees' apartments for months, so there were mass evictions. Hundreds of foreign teachers were suddenly unemployed and homeless. Some embassies (like Australia) were even offering citizens emergency flights home. I survived it because the aforementioned Kobe earthquake survivor hired me and a friend of hers helped me take over the lease on my apartment, evicting Nova on paper and signed me on as the new renter. I ended up putting up a few other teachers while they got back on their feet or secured plane tickets home.

[@ASoberBear]

So theres hobos and crime everywhere?

[@tylerthompson5859]

It was later found out that Fukushima was designed to withstand any INDIVIDUAL major disaster. The earthquake/tsunami combo meant where one didn't get the plant, the other did. TEPCO was warned numerous times that the plant wasn't completely safe according to its designs and did nothing to update safely protocols and systems, which could have ultimately prevented the disaster in the first place, because scientists had discovered the walls weren't high enough for more recently measured wave heights, meaning the entire plant would basically drown and fail if those waves occured. And they did.. not long after that earthquake triggered the failsafe, dropping the control rods to stop the reactions.. and then, it was all downhill.

[@donwise8767]

You can blame General Electric for what happened, otherwise known as Greed and Evil. The Fukushima reactors had no containment vessels, which would have prevented the release of radiation. Greed and Evil sold Tokyo Electric on this concept due to the cost savings. The outcome disgustingly illustrates how the influence of the buzzard vomit on Wall Street ultimately results in disastrous and costly consequences.

A huge part of why Kobe was so devastated was due to how the houses were constructed, they were built with super heavy tiled roofs to endure the violent storms the region would get, but in cruel irony it meant while it could withstand massive winds it wasn't designed for the shaking of the foundation from earthquakes and almost all of the houses were completely flattened by the weight of the roofs, and it's what caused the death toll to reach such numbers as it did.

A small privately owned restaurant near my house had just reopened under new management. It had always offered standard fare, such as chicken fried steak, BBQ and other southern dishes. It did moderately well, but the new management decided to increase sales by offering an unlimited seafood buffet for lunch on Wednesdays. It was only $9.99 each and instantly was wildly popular! Their biggest moving item was the shrimp, which was fried, boiled, popcorn and shrimp etouffee. People were heaping nothing but shrimp on their plates and eating tons of it! The special was supposed to run for two months, but was cut short after just three weeks. Shortly thereafter the restaurant closed it's doors again and their new "manager" was out looking for a new job! Hopefully he found one that doesn't involve selling food!

Great so we had to drill through the airstrip approx 1 1/2 ft of concrete + 4ft depth as needed for structural integrity for the fence post footing. A Hydronic Taxoma drill rig was used to do the job. Unfortunately on the 3rd hole the drill unit hit some underground obstruction. Witch had brought the project to a screaming hault. When 80% of Boeing Fields fiber optics had been drilled through. Costing a staggering $27,000,000 price tag blow to the utility Companys (Call before you dig. ) for a paint mark off by 19 inches.

So, real story on the Deepwater Horizon, I've never worked for Halliburton, but I worked for their direct competitor for 7 years and there are many different facets to the story. The company that owned and operated the drilling rig was Transocean, which is a great company with an outstanding safety record, but they had been having trouble abandoning the Macondo well so that they could move on to the Kaskida well and the production rig was due to move onto Macondo behind them. The issue was that Halliburton had been researching a better concrete slurry to plug the well so that it could be properly abandoned until the production rig had their blow out preventer and casing tubing installed and could drill through the concrete plug and start oil production. Well Halliburton hadn't perfected the concrete mixture yet and on top of everything not enough centrilizers were used on the drill string due to BP and Halliburton decisions on cost cutting. Also, once the plug had been found to have been leaking from a negative pressure test the Manual Disconnect System had failed to shear the pipe in the BOP because of poor maintenance on the rig crew's part. I have somewhat of a connection to the BOP, but I cannot say how (for obvious reasons) although I can say that I have never seen or touched it. The major issue was that there was a breakdown in pressure applied by BP to the rig crew into believing false ideologies in an attempt to explain away the pressure leak, on Halliburton for not thoroughly testing their slurry concoction before implementing it, and also on the many safeguards that are taught to us as oilfield workers when we are first hired and throughout our careers as we advance to different positions. It's an unfortunate reality in the oilfield that when the budget is way overblown and the projected completion date of a project is passed and exceeded that the owners of the well will attempt to come up with well founded reasons for why something is wrong, but well experienced and trained oilfield employees know better, but they go with the flow because even though we were thoroughly trained to "stop the job" when we find something wrong, we can't stand up to company men. It's sad. It truly is.

I’m American, but I also own the Bloomsbury, non-Americanized, versions of the HP books.

Deep water horizon wasn’t a mistake. It was the greed of BP pushing rented equipment to the Max with minimal repair.

[@colincampbell767]

The equipment was not being rented by BP. It was owned and operated by Transocean. BP contracted with Transocean to drill and prepare the well. Drilling that well had been a series of one problem after another which put them three months behind schedule. Although BP was responsible for a poor design (they had been using the exact same well design for years) and their disaster response plan had been copied from copies, from copies for a decade. It was Transocean who screwed up. BP had also screwed up by allowing a contract clause that shifted liability for any oil spills from Transocean to BP. Additionally there was an element of arrogance on the part of Transocean and BP in that they believed that they were 'too good at their jobs' to have a drill rig disaster. Another issue was the top levels of safety management. If you want to get promoted you have to have some kind of achievement. And not having an oil rig blow up in the last year when it had been three decades since the last time it happened wasn't going to impress anybody. So the people responsible for safety were concentrating on 'slips, trips and falls' (the most common workplace accident) and not really paying attention to the oil rigs. Also the routine on the oil rig had been disrupted that day - in what was a cruel irony - when BP officials came out and gave the crew a safety award. Another factor was in the fact that the 'industry standard' blowout preventer had a design flaw in that the design had not been updated after the introduction of higher strength drill pipe. (Which was a problem that affected every blowout preventer in service at the time that nobody noticed because no drill pipes had to be cut in order to perform an emergency seal of a deep sea oil well.) And the cause of the accident was 100% mistakes made by the drill crew. The Haliburton team had indications that something went wrong with the cement work but ignored it because they had seen them before and nothing bad had happenned. The readings from the pressure test showed an anomaly that the people interpreting the results failed to look into. (And they didn't look into why the first two tests had failed they simply re-did the test until the got the result they needed. And in both of these cases - it was the people who did the work who didn't communicate the fact that they were getting 'odd' results to their supervisors. And the final failure was made by the supervisor for that shift on the drilling level itself. Industry SOP was to always have a person observing the flow of drill mud when it was being pumped into the holding tank (on a ship moored to the drill rig) but the person on the bridge if that ship never saw anybody doing this. The supervisor of the crew on the drill floor also failed to notify the ship that the pumps removing the mud from the well had been turned off. As a result - the fact that the mud was still coming out of the well after the pumps were turned off was not noticed by the person who was supposed to be observing it - and not reported by the person who saw the mud entering the tank on his ship but assumed that everything was OK because he hadn't been informed that the pumps had been turned off. The failures by the on-duty drill crew have been glossed over because they were the first ones to die in the explosion and nobody wanted a public perception of a cover-up by blaming the dead people for the disaster. This disaster was the result of a lot of assumptions, an institutional belief that attention to disaster response plans were not needed because they were "too good at their jobs to have a disaster in the first place," a failure of safety management to be prepared for 'blue swan' events, and a series of minor judgement errors by people actually doing the work. Of course when the disaster occurred BP public relations didn't shoot themselves in the foot. Instead they emptied the entire magazine into their foot, reloaded and did it again. And the US govrenment did a lot of questionable things. When BP gave the US govrenment $22 billion to pay damages to people impacted by the disaster. Less than half that money had been paid out when the fund ran out of money. The US govrenment demanded another $20 billion - and BP refused unless the US govrenment gave them an accounting of what happened to the rest of the money. And of course the US govrenment had a windfall of money from the disaster as a result of the fines and fees levied against BP - and the fact that the use govrenment earned a royalty of $12 off of each barrel of oil that left that well.

[@tensevo]

If they were being greedy, they would have not allowed it to happen. Greedy is just the wrong word since it cost them a lot of money. I think they made a mistake and trusted too much without proper checks and procedures in place. I didn't hear you commenting before the accident. Why? because it's easy in hindsight, to point out what went wrong, but health and safety is hard when people are involved. People do some dumb things if the incentives are wrong.

Hedging their bets on a growing game console game rentals. They didn't understand the market they were in, and were stuck in the early 90's. All of this is still evident by their last remaining store that closed this year. | Video Rentals were losing popularity because of single rental costs, and distribution. Not availibility. This is something blockbuster never understood as they were heavily fixated on there "Single-rental" philosophy. They simply never thought people would want to sit more than 1.5 hours in front of a TV, rather than go to a social event(Theatre). The final nail in their coffin is there strong ties to the MPAA. The MPAA /hates/ distribution models like DVD/Blu-Ray, and hates even more the Digital Distribution method favored today. Simply because its not profitable(for them) as their licensing favors theatre showings, and its the largest contributor to theatre operation costs as a result. The MPAA was having a long fight with at-home video playback in the 90's and 2000's. Blockbuster, hoping to soothe the raging boomer of a organization, invested heavily into making agreements with the agency. Resulting in higher rental costs, but at the same time, made it difficult for competing companies offering the same services due to favoritism by the influence. However, the MPAA couldn't pull the same stunt with Netflix. Their distribution method was treated less like rentals and more like time-shares purchases. MPAA not having fleshed out regulations favoring them, and their market manipulation tactics, resulted in Netflix both reducing overhead far below Blockbuster and being their own monopoly by being first through the gate. thus blockbusters ideas for monopoly by favoritism and manipulation was also their greatest undoing. If they would of fought the MPAA's greed, and fought competition with gimmicks they were already famous for, They would of remained profitable for a long time post-mail rental.
