      Ahh, good to know. So we can scratch that off of the list of stupid things they did, although the lack of a transponder beacon and a surface egress option are still pretty high on the list.

        Even if they were to surface. The latch is only able to be opened from outside. So unless they are found they will still die in 40 hours.
