Also note that the "4th chamber" you refer to is in fact a complex passage that involves several significant ups, downs, twists, and turns that are difficult enough for a free-swimming diver to traverse. Negotiating them with a tethered ROV would be nearly impossible as the tether would undoubtedly become entangled. Also recognize that cave divers also deploy permanent safety guidelines throughout the cave to aid in our safe passage that could easily become entangled with a ROV. I'm just trying to assure that your team knows what pitfalls they face in this endeavor.

Latency along the tether becomes an issue at increased ranges (frankly it is already an issue on our 100 meter tether) so that may limit us, but we'll know more once we start pushing things. When we reviewed the mappings of the chamber system back in the planning stages of the project, we didn't see anything mapped for the 4th chamber and beyond, so our ultimate goal is to find out what's back there. As of right now, since we're all clearly amateurs and the project is an in-progress Open Source one, we're not quite there yet, so we're still looking for a successful first dive before we get ahead of ourselves. But long term that 4th chamber and beyond is our goal.

For years legitimate cave research has been hindered by the portrayal of cave diving as being an extremely dangerous activity, and any time I see public references to cave diving fatalities and discussion of cave diving "safety" I have cause for concern. The years-long battle for open access to JW is hindered when laypersons portray the resource as dangerous. If you wish to test your ROV in Jacob's Well for evaluation purposes that is great, but please don't imply that our important work there in some way compromises safety. As your project progresses you may want to contact Hays County so that you can begin the process of submitting your application for a research permit at the site. In the future I would be pleased to discuss with you detailed specifics of the cave system which may prove invaluable in negotiating the complex passages of the cave system.Chuck Noenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3089396701746973439.post-10406712103186638542014-09-30T10:17:06.749-05:002014-09-30T10:17:06.749-05:00It's the word "safely" that implies ...It's the word "safely" that implies what the current explorers are doing is unsafe.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3089396701746973439.post-16521919211725379352014-09-30T10:17:05.964-05:002014-09-30T10:17:05.964-05:00One of the first pieces of information we reviewed...One of the first pieces of information we reviewed before we even started building the ROV was the report you reference.
