To those asking, #Titan did not perform well on my dive. Ultimately, I walked away from a huge opportunity to film Titanic due to my safety concerns w/ the @OceanGate platform. There's more to the history and design of Titan that has not been made public - much of it concerning.
I had the unique opportunity to dive in the @Oceangate#Titan sub with Stockton at the helm in preparation for its maiden mission to Titanic. I pray for a positive outcome to the rescue efforts of those aboard, including fellow @ExplorersClub member Hamish Harding.

Experts say Kherson's famous watermelons and tomatoes will disappear for years.
About 94% of Kherson's irrigated land has been left without water. Kherson steppes, where cereals, oil crops, watermelons, tomatoes, peppers, aubergines and other vegetables were grown thanks to well-established system of irrigation canals, may turn into deserts next year.
And the current crop of watermelons in the flooded areas of the region has been washed away almost completely.
