Some good feedback from cave experts in Thailand. Iterating with them on an escape pod design that might be safe enough to try. Also building an inflatable tube with airlocks. Less likely to work, given tricky contours, but great if it does.

Got more great feedback from Thailand. Primary path is basically a tiny, kid-size submarine using the liquid oxygen transfer tube of Falcon rocket as hull. Light enough to be carried by 2 divers, small enough to get through narrow gaps. Extremely robust.

Continue to be amazed by the bravery, resilience & tenacity of kids & diving team in Thailand. Human character at its best.

Love that you're trying to help. Too bad you can't fly over the Boring Company drill to tunnel through to the boys!
