Reply to Gail Smith

Gail, forget the flower analogy.

The CTBTO Report of 29 Nov 2017 provided the basis for derivation of the following:

Collapse depth
Energy release
Duration of compession phase of the collapse
Quantification of the involved forces
Survival probabilities
Bathymetry above which the SAN JUAN collapsed
Probable dimensions of the debris field
Number of major sections of the wreck

The last messages sent by the SAN JUAN indicated - with a very high probability - the cause of the disaster.

Discussion of these results is the provence of Argentine authorities.

Gail, "try to remember that the history (of collapse events) is written by" acoustics. So it was with THRESHER, SCORPION, STERLET, the K-8, the K-278, the SAN JUAN and three other events that cannot be further discussed.
