Pieces of the doomed Titanic submarine destroyed in a 'catastrophic' implosion have been seen for the first time after being brought to shore
Pieces of the doomed Titanic submarine destroyed in a "catastrophic" implosion have been seen for the first time after being brought to shore.
Pictures show the remnants being unloaded from the US Coastguard ship Sycamore and Horizon Arctic at the Canadian Coast Guard pier in St John's, Newfoundland. US Coastguard crews discovered the debris field roughly 1,600 feet from the bow of the Titanic last week, the Mirror reports. The big clues they are currently examining are five "major pieces" of debris. Undersea expert Paul Hankin said: “We found five different major pieces of debris that told us that it was the remains of the Titan.
“Shortly thereafter we found a second smaller debris field. Within that debris field we found the other end of the pressure hull. We continue to map out the debris field, and as the admiral said, we will do the best we can to fully map out what’s down there.”The USCG previously confirmed that debris found at the wreck of the Titan showed signs that a devastating loss of pressure occurred in the submersible.
