One of the final messages from the five-person crew of the Titan submersible before it imploded, killing all inside, has been revealed.
Investigators with the US Coast Guard said a message reading, “all good here”, was among the final communications between the Titan and its mother ship, before they lost contact for good.
Also shown at the hearing for the first time was an image, taken by a remotely operated vehicle, of Titan’s tail cone sitting on the seafloor following the implosion.
Coast Guard officials began a two-week inquiry on Monday, aiming to uncover the facts of the incident and offer recommendations to prevent similar tragedies.
The deep-sea vessel, operated by Oceangate, was less than two hours into its descent towards the wreck of the Titanic when it imploded in June 2023.
Oceangate CEO Stockton Rush, British explorer Hamish Harding, Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman, and French explorer Paul-Henri Nargeole, were all aboard the Titan at the time of the implosion.
