They may as well be on the moon.

Curious if they are connected via a tether of some type.

Either way, that’s not good and really sad.

There's no way they wouldn't be able to deploy a bouy with a gps tied to the sub that floats to the surface, or something similar. Like your trapped in a metal can underwater you better have several contingency plans.

If they're miles down it would probably float off before it got to the surface.
