One small correction. This will not be the first cruise ship powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG). That would be Carnival Corporation's AIDAnova. And not even the first one based in the US, that would be Carnival's Mardi Gras. It will however be Royal Caribbean's first LNG powered ship I believe. 😊

A truly remarkable feat of design and engineering BUT I would not venture out to sea on it. A cruise is an enjoyable experience and generally cruise liners of comfort do not carry 10,000 people. I have been cruising for decades and have observed these vessels become larger and equipped with entertainment more befitting land based enterprises. There will be two of these monsters and no doubt competitors will seek to make bigger ones. Truly major feats of engineering excellence. So was the Titanic in its short lived life.

When it sinks in relatively shallow water it will make the most EPIC recreational dive site in history. However, it's so tall that you'll definitely have to live by your compression diving tables if you plan to explore more than a few decks of it. The damned thing looks like it's top heavy in the extreme and seeing all that surface area above the waterline, all I can think of is "sail area" and "what happens if it takes a heavy gust of wind abeam? Probably it falls over."

Looks like they would do a much better job. That's because business works and government doesn't.

"Why pay $10 for a hammer when you can pay $1000 for one?" is the general motto of these corrupt government bureaucrats that line their own pockets at the expense of the public at every chance. They're basically opportunistic thieves and it's a culture not an individualistic thing, so it doesn't change the outcome by ousting the people, the "culture and institutions" have to change.
