an oceanographer at the scripps institution. >> the ocean is inherently a noisy place.ave lots of marine mammals making sounds, and there's a lot of instrumentation in the ocean. we have geophysical explorations going on. sound travels pretty well underwater, so i would give it a low chance of identification that in fact the banging noises that we heard were from the underwater submersible. >> as questions remain about how to reach the sub, past allegations and questions about the company that runs the voyage, oceangate expeditions, have surfaced. in 2018, a terminated employee sued the company, raising concerns about the safety of its submersible technology. that same year, more than three dozen industry experts sent a letter with similar concerns to the ceo, warning of potential catastrophic outcomes. he insisted at the time oceangate took adequate safety measures. he was piloting this latest trip and is among the five passengers aboard the missing vessel. >> often times, when organizations want to push the technology envelope, they will use materials that are uncommo

oh, well, tony fauci's and christian anderson's voice from the scripps institute and eddie holmes voice and then etc., etc. and i would just i would just bring them in. scott the chinese virologist, you mentioned that they released the sequence. did she have any backlash from chinese government for doing that? the one who released the sequences is he that's yang's and jiang zhengli. she is the woman at the wuhan institute. so professor zhang released the sequence. he got in trouble. his lab was closed for rectification soon afterwards. and according to eddie holmes, he has been in trouble. and eddie, even eddie doesn't exactly know much trouble he's in, but he's a government employee and he may have tanked his career by doing that. so when people say, well, the chinese are close, chinese have been opaque. the chinese haven't been transparent, they haven't shared any information. that's half true. it's very true. chinese officialdom. it's not true of. chinese scientists, at least the best, most courageous of them. anybody else, they've animal an animal that's going to get it. next, what

we're joined again by jules jaffe, an oceanographer with the scripps institute of oceanography at the university of california, san diego. thank you for being with us. when the coast guard says that the submersibles debris is consistent with the catastrophic loss of the pressure chamber, what does that mean? what, based on your vast experience, likely happened? jules: as we know, the vehicle lost contact about one and three quarters hour after it left the surface and it was about 2.5 hours to the bottom so my conjecture is actually that it was not quite at the bottom but was probably around 800 or 900 -- 8000 or 9000 feet deep. from what we understand, the pressure at that depth is around 4000 pounds per square inch so think about a square inch. think about 4000 pounds. when you think about the pressure, it's actually coming from all directions so the best analogy i could think about was imagine you have an egg in your hand and you simply crush it. i think honestly, that is what happened to the vehicle. geoff: what happens next? will there be a recovery effort or does the ocean depths
