It\'s actually a shroud - a structure to protects the stuff sticking out from the submersible hull. If it were an aircraft it would be a fairing, but a slow moving submersibles don\'t need stream-lining.

Why would I care what what the debris was that was brought up. I was just pointing out that it hadn\'t \"disintegrated\" as you had claimed that it would..
If it were an aircraft you\'d call it a fairing. There are similar structures that get called shrouds - as in \"shrouded fan\".
Save your imagined expertise to areas that you know something about.
Comments that you imagine to be stupid because you imagine that you know what you are talking about. Your \"corrections\" aren\'t helpful, because you don\'t.

It didn\'t implode the first time it was taken down to 12,000 feet below the ocean surface, so you do need think up another explanation for it\'s eventual failure.
No, YOU need to dream up an explanation - I KNOW what caused the failure, unlike YOU.
You always think you know, but have learned not to tell anybody because you mostly get it wrong. The likeliest explanation is that the submersible banged into something. If we ever get to see the fragments we may be able to work out what actually happened, but high pressure implosions have fragments shooting inwards remarkably fast. When I worked on all glass vacuum lines we were warmed that the bits didn\'t always collide in the middle and could come out the other side dangerously fast. Sticky tape was enough to stop that, though fly-wire cages looked more professional. Deep sea pressures are a lot higher.
\"Banged into something\"? REALLY?? . The hull IMPLODED because of STRUCTURAL FAILURE due to progressive failure of its carbon fiber. Period. End of story. There ARE NO carbon fiber fragments to recover - they literally disintegrated in the resulting implosion.

Those bits don\'t look all that disintegrated. Nice of you to do your gloating about your superior insight before reality had made it plain quite how inferior your insight is.
Those pieces ARE NOT part of the hull, but a fairing that streamlines the hull and IS NOT under pressure. But, you don\'t know what a \"fairing\" is, so I am not surprised one bit. This is a quote from YOUR own reference:
Of course I know what a fairing is. Quite why you\'d bother fairing a very slow moving submersible escapes - maybe to make it look nice.

\"It\'s believed the submersible imploded, and the cause is under investigation.\"
What you are saying is that you believe that what you can see in the picture is a fairing. You don\'t know anything about the rest of the debris - other than that it is \"to be investigated\". The report does mention human remains, and they would have started off inside the pressure hull, and would - according to your theory - have \"disintegrated\" along with the carbon fibre of the cylindrical part of the hull. The fairing should have taken a beating at the same time - there would have been a lot of fast moving water around at the time if the hull had \"imploded\" as opposed to merely crumpling..
No, I KNOW that is the fairing. It doesn\'t even remotely resemble the shape and color of the hull, you IDIOT!
If it were an aircraft you\'d call it a fairing. There are similar structures that get called shrouds - as in \"shrouded fan\".
Save your imagined expertise to areas that you know something about.
Why not wait until the results of the investigation get published? You may even find that some of your baseless assertions happen line up with what actually happened. It\'s pretty unlikely, but you might lucky.
Because YOU are making these STUPID comments that require correction.
Comments that you imagine to be stupid because you imagine that you know what you are talking about. Your \"corrections\" aren\'t helpful, because you don\'t.
