User blog:Xenodrone98/Solving scientific info about the escape pod

Okay, this is a collaborative effort, anything you know about the lifepod, possible dimensions in ft or inches, or materials it is made of is important. So this blog is a sub blog going off of Fishrus's Who is the player blog. Now to solve questions like that, we need to piece evidence together, and if we dont have evidence? We try to find possible evidence, or what I am doing now.

So lets go over the lifepod: How strong is it, heat resistance? Material? Materials? Alloys? Tools? Location on the Aurora, And deployment time. Now I dont get to go on Subnautica often so you guys and girls, ladies and gentlemen, are my eyes. So, here are the following things that you can do

1. Figure out how long it took the player to launch the lifepod. (Measure 3 times, the time it took to get into the chair, the time it took to launch the lifepod, from in the chair, and the both times together. All of this in seconds)

2. What direction was the aurora traveling( this is key info) As in when the player looked at the top hatch what direction was the aurora moving? Left or Right?

3. List the major damaged areas of the aurora.

4. How long did the cutscenes go (start recroding time at when he deploys out of the aurora, to the time he is hit in the head.)

5. How fast was the aurora traveling?Actually, dont do that.

6. Did the lifepod spin in the air, after the aurora has a second explosion in the air, propelling the lifepod out of the sky, was the lifepod spinning? You can tell by the light traveling through the top hatch.

Okay I need that info, if anyone is nice enough to try and find out, I need this to do some calculations.

So what do we know. The lifepod wasn't moving as quickly as the aurora. So here is an example of what I mean, A car is traveling at at 100 mph, at a constant rate. You jump out of the side. You will travel for 100 mph, for a split second, and your acceleration rate will quickly drop down in the air. So the lifepod wasn't traveling as fast as the aurora, so it would take less damage on impact. That and the lifepod descended in the air very slowly. As the aurora is still close when the second blast propels the lifepod. So I guess some sort of an air brake is built into the lifepod. The aurora is traveling at an angle, and is very aerodynamic. The life pod is not quite.

So the lifepod possibly has a built in air brake for the descent. Now if the lifepod started to spin out of controll after the second explosion on. The aurora in mid air, propelling the aurora to the water, than that means that the airbrakes failed.

SO what made the lifepod go into a kinda red alert when descending? After the second explosion, which propelled the lifepod. The lifepod was descending on a very high speed. That plus the air friction means it would have burst into flames. Yes the outside would catch on fire (ever wonder why meteors catch on fire in the atmosphere? Friction) So the lifepod is probably design to be resistant to lots of heat, if it is made of titanium, which is not a good conductor.

The fire. Now why would the lifepod catch on fire? Because there isn't much of a reason to why. The fire must have started when the lifepod struck the water, or some time afterwards. Because if it was in the air when the lifepod was still falling? The player would be scorched. The fire must have been from Titanium, when titanium catches on fire, water will not put it out. Titanium has a silvery-white metal color, identical to every vehicle and seabase in subnautica. That and Titanium has a very high melting point. So it would make sense that the lifepod is made of a titanium alloy. But what if the titanium and the alloy happened to well, separate inside the lifepod (in the floorplating) because of heat and pressure? Raw titanium, from what I believe, doesn't react well with air, combusting. this would make some sense, the titanium alloy split apart shortly after impact, and was exposed to air, then combusted. Water doesn't put out the fire. There are many things that the fire extinguisher could have that would put out the fire.

Now how would I know if the fire was from titanium combustion. Someone feel free to go in game, and to the part where you extinguish the fire. Is the smoke a thick black? Or lots of thick white smoke? A titanium combustion fire would produce thick white smoke.

So how long was the player unconscious? This depends on when the fire started. Supposing that it is a titanium combustion fire, I still dont know. Titanium is a bad conductor of heat, so it heats up slowly, and cools down slowly. So the fire Could have started, say ten to maybe 20 minutes after the landing I guess and the titanium is still very hot. Once the fire started, only around 1 to maybe 5 minutes the player wakes up because of a clogged up air tract. The fire would spread quickly. So that is why the fire in the game starts up again if you dont spray it all out. The titanium is still able to combust because the fire around it is spreading through the solution you just sprayed with the extinguisher. Other than that I wouldn't know why the fire would continue to spread.

That is all I have for now
