The sea is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. The only thing bigger is space.

- userbinator 3y agoIt is recommended to take a long cruise if you want to see just a tiny piece of it, and indeed even that experience is mind-boggling for the first time. That said, seeing nothing but water all around, as far as the horizon, can trigger intense fear in some people.
- windowshopping 3y agoSorry but this doesn't really answer my question. I know the sea is vast. Yet we are able to navigate it consistently. Why is this vessel unable to stay in contact with its parent and relay its relative location?
- xwdv 3y agoYou know the communication equipment failed right? I’m not sure what you expect. You know radio signals don’t travel through water?
- muspimerol 3y ago> I know the sea is vast. Yet we are able to navigate it consistently. I'm not an expert, but I think this is an incorrect assumption. We can navigate it decently on the surface (even then, plenty of ships sink/go missing each year [1]) but underwater is a whole different story. > Why is this vessel unable to stay in contact with its parent That is kind of the big question here.
