An international group of agencies is investigating the loss of the Titan submersible, seeking to determine what caused it to implode while carrying five people to the Titanic. Know more:
This undated image provided by OceanGate Expeditions in June 2021 shows the company’s Titan submersible. The wrecks of the Titanic and the Titan sit on the ocean floor, separated by 1,600 feet and 111 years of history. How they came together unfolded over an intense week that raised temporary hopes and left lingering questions.
“My primary goal is to prevent a similar occurrence by making the necessary recommendations to advance the safety of the maritime domain worldwide,” Neubauer said. Authorities from the US and Canada began the process of probing the cause of the underwater implosion and are grappling with questions of who is responsible for determining how the tragedy unfolded.
The Coast Guard led the initial search and rescue mission, a massive international effort that likely cost millions of dollars. “The Coast Guard doesn’t charge for search and rescue nor do we associate a cost with human life,” said Rear Adm. John Mauger, of the Coast Guard First District.
