Plog Number 190
The Submersive
Aloha ploggers, How are you doing? I am hoping that all of you are enjoying your life and health. June is a great time of year in my neck of the woods. This is exactly 1 year since the not so supreme court overturned Roe v. Wade. The 50 different United States are doing 50 different things. The value of consistency and safety for the lives of 👩 women was decidedly lost on this Supreme Court. And the beat goes on!!
In the recent news there is a sad story going around about deep sea 🚣♀️ explorers. The vessel is known as the Titan submersible. Trips of this kind have been taken annually since 2021.The Titan was going down to see the ruins of the remains of the Titanic. The Titan was tethered to another larger boat but lost contact with it after only1 hour and 45 minutes. The US Coast Guard and Canadian officials are utilizing 🚁aircrafts and ships in order to find the Titan. The Titan is believed to be somewhere off the coast of Newfoundland. The submersible holds 5 people and has 4 days’ worth of breathable oxygen on board.
There are 5 people on the Titan. They are all wealthy people who paid $ 250,000 💵 to be on the vessel. Passengers include: Stockton Rush an American who is the CEO of OceanGate Expeditions, Hamish Harding an Englishman owner of Action Aviation, Paul Henry Nargeolet French dive expert, Shahzada Dawood Pakistani businessman and his son Sulemon Dawood.
A Canadian aircraft detected banging via their sonar devices. The banging 🔊 was coming from somewhere in the North Atlantic. The banging was occurring every 30 minutes and was heard four hours later. The search has been widened in the area where the banging was detected. The search area is now two times the size of Connecticut and is two and a half miles deep. As I write this on June 21 (Wednesday) the Titan has 1 more days’ worth of 💨 oxygen on board. If anyone ever needed prayers, these people need it right now. Many people are critiquing the voyagers for their choice to go on the trip. I think it is too late for any of that. We all make our choices for our lives. Those with extra money are functioning higher up on the Maslow scale than those of us without. While poor people are worrying about 🍔 food, wealthy people are thinking about 🎆 thrills. Jeff Bezos and other millionaires went to space. Sometimes it is a blessing just to be where we are in life. Know that you are enough and RECLAIM!
ADDENDUM
This Plog was written prior to the news of the catastrophic demise of the submersive called Titan. Ironically the remnants of the vessel were found 1600 feet in front of the bow of the Titanic. We now know that the vessel suffered an implosion on Sunday (Father's Day). The youngest crew member didn't even want to go but went to support his father who was a Titanic enthusiast. So now the Titanic can add 5 to the number of souls claimed at the bottom of the North Atlantic ocean.🙏
