Comment Comment by LooseMarmoset oceangate isn't a good comparison.carbon fiber is great in tension, i.e. a compressed air tank, or COPVcarbon fiber is much less great in compression, i.e. OceanGateAlso the OceanGate construction process was bad, even for carbon fiber, because the CEO didn't listen to actual engineers. parent LooseMarmoset 15 days ago
