If the Titan had no windows and the passengers viewed everything through a camera, what was the point in going down inside it?
Might as well just send a remote controlled robot to poke about.

But as a society we should remember what comes of commercial arrogance, inadequate engineering and skimping on safety measures. Let it be a lesson learned, if people forgot the past they would be doomed to
