Onlookers caught glimpses of the Titan submersible wreckage as its crews brought its remains ashore. These provide clues to what may have happened while a formal investigation is underway. Though it's difficult to know for sure, an expert said the carbon-fiber hull likely failed first. Photos of the Titan submersible wreckage support the theory that the vessel's carbon-fiber hull may have led to its catastrophic implosion, an expert told Insider. The US Coast Guard brought debris from the Titan submersible ashore this week, giving onlookers a brief, imperfect glimpse as it was taken away for analysis. ... Though it is...

Debris from the Titan submersible that imploded on the bottom of the Atlantic as it tried to reach the wreckage of the Titanic has been hauled ashore. The huge chunks of metal were unloaded from the Horizon Arctic ship at the Canadian Coast Guard pier in St John's, Newfoundland, Canada, this morning. They were quickly covered in large tarpaulins before being lifted by cranes on to trucks that took them away for assessment. It comes exactly ten days after the doomed Titan submersible vanished during a tourist trip run by OceanGate Expeditions. Last Thursday it was revealed that the sub...

Rather long video by Scott Manley, who normally blogs about things space related. This is a "rant," in which he streams his thoughts and responds to questions and comments from viewers. One interesting thing he did say that I made note of, concerning the energy released when the Titan submarine imploded. If we assume that it made it to a depth of 8000 feet, we can estimate the amount of energy that was focused on its occupants by just turning the situation around (in a sense) and calculating the amount of energy needed to clear one cubic meter of volume...

The debris found at the seafloor was “consistent with a catastrophic implosion of the vessel,” the Coast Guard said. All five people aboard the Titan submersible are believed to be dead, and debris discovered in the search area for the missing vessel was consistent with a "catastrophic implosion," the U.S. Coast Guard said. The debris was found off the bow of the sunken Titanic, officials said. The search for the Titan, which went missing Sunday after embarking on a mission to survey the wreckage of the Titanic, had been focused on an area where Canadian aircraft detected "underwater noises" Tuesday...

The area surrounding Titanic's Atlantic grave grows busier with search vessels as everyone tries to get eyes on the missing OceanGate submersible.Earlier this week, a submarine full of tourists disappeared while on a trip to the wreckage of the Titanic. The sub was equipped with 96 hours of oxygen, meaning rescuers are racing against the clock to locate the missing sub and save its occupants from watery, claustrophobic hell. The latest update? They’re still down there. However, rescuers have noticed a sound coming from beneath the North Atlantic, a set of “banging” noises first discovered by a Canadian plane. They’re...

The stepson of a British billionaire aboard a missing Titanic-bound sub went online to flirt with a nearly nude Only Fans model Wednesday as rescuers raced to find the vessel. Brian Szasz, the stepson of wealthy British explorer Hamish Harding, retweeted an image of Only Fans it-girl Brea flashing her booty in a thong with the caption, “can i sit on u” on Twitter Wednesday as the high-stakes rescue mission unfolded. “Yes please!” Szasz gushed enthusiastically. The post came just minutes after he asked followers to “please keep my family in your prayers.”

As rescuers continue to search for the missing submersible carrying five passengers who intended to visit the wreckage of the Titanic, naval experts have emphasized the challenges of a successful rescue operation. Recovering underwater craft is always a tricky business, and the submersible that traveled to the Titanic went to such extreme depths that any rescue attempt would be extraordinarily difficult. Fifty years ago, the two-man crew of a small submersible was rescued off the coast of Ireland, but was in far shallower waters than the vessel that’s currently stuck somewhere in the vicinity of the Titanic. When asked if...

Five people are currently missing in a submersible that went to visit the Titanic shipwreckWelsh presenter and adventurer Lowri Morgan has recalled how she felt “emotional” upon venturing down to see the Titanic shipwreck in a Mir Russian submersible in 2003. The 48-year-old, who hails from Gowerton, was speaking to WalesOnline following news that a tourist submersible, Titan, went missing during a similar expedition on Sunday, June 18. “When the opportunity came I accepted the challenge and was committed to doing the research,” said Lowri, who was a deep-sea diver at the time. She described how at the time the...
