The US military heard it and didn’t necessarily want to give away capability of listening devices around the sea floor.

The sub was difficult to get to the debris field because it was at an incredibly deep section that few craft are capable of reaching safely.
It was frustrating they made a big deal about something we ultimately could have done nothing about in the first place. However it’s not like the whole “hearing the implosion” thing was something the military wanted to give away and at that depth we have to be careful. Don’t forget we’ve put more people into space than have been to the deepest point on the planet.
So why did they reveal that info after if it was so sensitive? I wouldn’t have thought that would have changed anything. I also have vague memories of reports of a “sound” being detected early on but then not mentioned again until after. Then again my memory is trash so I dunno
No. They heard it at the surface. You hear the equivalent of hundreds of pounds of explosives going off within a few thousand feet. It probably even vibrated the boat a bit.
It was the equivalent of a massive depth charge. They heard it at the surface near by unless the entire crew was sound asleep.
Source for all that please, I’m interested.

What I want to know about that accident is, which idiot kept spreading the lie that the search teams were hearing “banging noises” every half hour, long after the sub had imploded.
Somebody was doing a little trolling
Where’s the meme
sigh “Pepperidge farm remembers” (sad voice)
Remember when there was a boat full of migrants that sank around the same time and nobody in power gave half a shit about it even though it would’ve been way easier to locate and rescue those people?
Corporate media moment, dry humping us for ad revenue
I mostly remember the non-stop memes from the moment they went missing.
Good times.
Controller disconnected.
