        Yeah, but 512 GB? That’s gotta be overwriting some data. The amount of data generated by sensors is massive.

                  Ok, so tell me how you are going to get a location fix underwater, in the dark, with no landmarks to orient yourself, in constantly shifting currents?

                  Even the Navy’s most advanced nuclear submarines have to surface to get their location. This thing was a carbon fiber tube with an Xbox controller and an idiot designer.

                    You use your starting point as a baseline and keep track of the movement of the craft.
