Haunting final photos of Titan submersible revealed

The US Coast Guard has released the first image of OceanGate’s ill-fated Titan submersible, showing the vessel’s severed tail cone resting on the ocean floor after its tragic implosion.

Revealed at a press conference held nearly three months after the incident on June 18, 2023, the image depicts the aftermath of the experimental watercraft’s destruction at a depth of 12,500 feet, resulting in the loss of all 5 passengers on board.

More than 100 issues leading up to the Titan submersible’s implosion were detailed by the US Coast Guard.
