Two billionaires, hope they got my name right in the will
I would think at least Woods Hole has a submersible that can go down to the Titanic. You'd have thought it would have already been onsite diving to the wreck.

Yeah, 20k down isnt for amatuers.
The scientists wrung all the information they want from it years ago. The self assigned "study the deterioration" mission is just a fig leaf to give them a reason to go down so they can sell tickets.
If you can get the Woods Hole vehicle there, not sure its equipped for that sort of search, and probably cant really provide any help. Even the Navys deep rescue might not be able to do anything. From what I understand, this things bolted closed.

“When I started the business, one of the things you’ll find, there are other sub operators out there, but they typically have gentlemen who are ex-military sub-mariners, and they — you’ll see a whole bunch of 50-year-old white guys,” Rush told Teledyne Marine representatives before the expedition began. Teledyne Marine made the sonar systems and the navigation systems for the vessel.
“I wanted our team to be younger, to be inspirational,” he continued. “And I’m not going to inspire a 16-year-old to go pursue marine technology, but a 25-year-old who’s a sub pilot or a platform operator, one of our techs, can be inspirational. So we’ve really tried to get very intelligent, motivated, younger individuals involved because we’re doing things that are completely new.”
“We’re taking approaches that are used largely in the aerospace industry as related to safety and some of the preponderance of checklists, things we do for risk assessments, things like that that are more aviation-related than ocean-related,” he declared. “We can train people to do that; we can train someone to pilot the sub. We use like game controller so anybody can drive the sub.”
Aaron Amick, founder of Sub Brief, who served as a U.S. Navy contractor and provided strategic and policy level consultation for domestic and international clients on cleared Navy projects, played the call from Rush in a video explaining some of the problems the beleaguered vessel may have faced as it has reputedly sunk to a depth of 12,000 feet below the surface.

It had't figured that out yet.
I'm probably the only person in the US who doesn't care about this. The news media is playing it out like some TV drama and great tragedy, but people die in this country every single day. Children are suffering and I'm supposed to give a damn about billionaires on a submarine?
