    Actually, can't find confirmation that Nargeolet had been on Titan before. But he was very, very experienced and would know what he was (literally) getting into. During an interview in 2019, Nargeolet, then 73, was asked whether he got scared diving 12,500ft below the water's surface to reach...

    Yeah, poor choices. But, to be clear, they've erected (ooh-eh) an actual bed in the standard camping area. Heroic! (Wouldn't be great if everyone did it, mind)

    How mad is this? The family of Hamish Harding, the billionaire missing aboard the Titan submersible, has condemned the “extremely bad taste” of a submarine-themed ball held at his former Cambridge college hours before oxygen on the craft was expected to run out. Pembroke College students...

    This guy has leaked info before the press conference. Hope the families find out from authorities not live news.

    A pedant writes: It's actually a Logitech PC controller, styled like a PlayStation controller - seemingly with 3D-printed plastic enhancements. In the CBS video, the CEO jokes about it, throws it down and claims to carry two spares. Which left me thinking: would he really pack two spares?!
