A Coast Guard official announced that the five people aboard a missing submersible died in a catastrophic event. The submersible operated by OceanGate Expeditions was lost during a voyage to the famous Titanic..
The people aboard the submersible were explorers— the submarine pilot and four others. Rescue teams from several countries spent days searching 'Titan'.
United States Coast Guard Rear Admiral John Mauger said at a press conference that an unmanned, deep-sea robot discovered the wreckage of the submersible on Thursday morning at about 488 meters from the bow of the century-old Titanic ship wreck, 4 kilometers below the surface.
Rescue teams from several countries spent days searching thousands of square miles of open seas with planes and ships for any sign of the 6.7-meter Titan, operated by U.S.-based OceanGate Expeditions.
