Submersible accidents

Submersible accidents involve failures in underwater vessels designed to explore deep ocean environments. These accidents can occur due to mechanical failure, material fatigue, loss of communication, or human error, often leading to catastrophic situations like flooding, pressure breaches, or loss of power. Because the deep ocean exerts extreme pressure and darkness, even small faults can have serious consequences. Such incidents highlight the importance of rigorous safety measures, maintenance, and engineering standards to protect both the crew and the valuable data or exploration missions they conduct.
