Unconfirmed from official sources, but they might have known something was wrong for 15+ mins.

Unlikely. At that insane pressure, the hull is either completely intact, or, once moving, completely imploding in a fraction of human reaction time. We’re talking about time frames of a millisecond. They couldn’t possibly have seen it coming. One moment you’re alive and well, the next moment your body is nothing more than paste.

The only evidence for them to legitimately worry about would have been from knowledge about any kind of sketchy practices and/or material choices during the building process.

I really wonder if we’ll ever find out if the leaked transcripts are authentic.

This video looks clickbait af but it goes over it with some detail.

Edit: 1000th lemmy comment woo 🎉

I believe what this user is referencing is the fact that they had sensors all throughout the carbon fibre hull to detect issues. So there could have been an “oh fuck” period before the instantaneous implosion.

iirc the guy that got fired for pointing out problems said, that the system might only provide a warning miliseconds before the ex implosion.

Real Engineering agreed with that too: https://youtu.be/6LcGrLnzYuU

Edit: He called it “safety theatre”.
