ArticleBody:The US Coast Guard released a map of the expansive debris field generated shortly after last year’s fatal OceanGate Titan submersible implosion. Although initially compiled during recovery efforts that took place June 23-29, 2023, representatives made the information public on September 22 as part of the ongoing Marine Board of Investigation hearings into the tragedy that killed five passengers during their descent to visit the Titanic’s historic wreckage.
” Those hearings began on September 16, and are currently scheduled to conclude on September 27 after depositions from 25 witnesses, including former OceanGate engineers, Coast Guard officials, and submersible construction contractors. At the time of the accident, OceanGate claimed Titan was one of only three submersibles in the world capable of withstanding the pressures experienced at the bottom of the North Atlantic Ocean.
