US Coast Guard Finds Suspected Human Remains in Titan Submersible Parts

The US Coast Guard has found the last of the submersible’s debris, including what appears to be human bones, after it imploded on its route to the Titanic’s crash, killing all five aboard.

According to officials, the salvage operation was carried out following a deal with the US Navy as a follow-up to initial retrieval efforts on the ocean floor about 1,600 feet (488 meters) from the Titanic.

The 22-foot (6.7-meter) vessel’s intact rear end could be seen in a photo released by the Coast Guard on Tuesday, which also stated that the recovery and transfer of the final sections were finished last Wednesday.

The Titan disintegrated, according to investigators, as it descended into the North Atlantic waters on June 18. After Titan went silent, a multi-day search effort was organized that attracted media interest all over the world. The submersible was seeking to view the 1912 sunk passenger liner.

The debris field was discovered at a depth of 12,500 feet (3,800 meters), and the Coast Guard previously reported that it collected supposed human remains as well as Titan-related pieces.

An undisclosed port received the supplies for offloading. In preparation for a public hearing on the disaster, the Coast Guard’s Marine Board of Investigation is continuing its investigation and interviewing witnesses.

The vessel’s owner, OceanGate, has now gone out of business. Stockton Rush, the company’s CEO, and the submersible’s pilot, was one of those killed in the implosion.
