Descent was up to 400 feet/minute. Two knots vertical at depth so the speed varied. Ascent is supposed to be 90 minutes. Scheduled bottom time 6-7 hours.

Vance,
It's been 2 hours since touchdown. Do you know how long they planned to spend near the bottom?
I'm guessing the ascent will require several hours. Do you know how long it took to descend?
Thanks,
Jim

This is still very exciting and should be praised as a major accomplishment for all Psubbers! Also, does anyone know: did Cameron make it back to the surface yet?
I've attached a picture with me and one of the only other humans (Don Walsh) to ever make this trip.

Why harsh? I'm delighted that a private party - albeit a rich one - has done what was once though to be the sole province of the Navy. It's equivalent in prestige, in my opinion, to private manned orbital flight into space.

Cameron: Touchdown 35,756 feet. 1700 hours CST. So that ought to put our
lives in rather harsh perspective, I'm thinking.
