Global warming v's titanic

[MorphMann]

Easy one to ask as it says mostly it all in the title.

With the polar ice melting, and the Icebergs moving, does this mean the chances of a Titanic collision is now greater??

Leaving apart SONAR etc

 

[GRIMLOCK]

collisions maybe but sinkings no since ships are more maneuverable now and built with compartments that work as intended

 

[leachy]

With the polar ice melting there will be no iceburgs to crash into

Double skinned hull are now common place . . most you'll do is flood a wing or bottom tank, either causing a bit of a tilt or you might rupture a fuel tank . .

Training and technology is better now too, so hopefull seen sooner, and course suitably adjusted.


I can talk all day about ships if you guys want. Pleeeese

I might be wrong, but I'm pretty sure the Titanic has already sunk, so there's not much chance of a collision

Dan,where on earth did you learn history?

 

[Cook$]

Titanic had a sister ship Olympic that actually was unsinkable. It had been smashing into s**t for a year before Titanic was launched.
