WASHINGTON: Wreckage of the crashed ocean probe Titan has been found in the Atlantic Ocean. The U.S. Coast Guard said that there are body parts of the passengers along with the wreckage of the Titan that was brought to the shore. These will be examined by a medical team from the US.

The Titan's nose cone, landing frame, side panel and associated equipment were recovered. They had been sent to the coast of Saint John's in Canada the other day. The wreck was recovered by the Canadian ship Horizon Arctic and the Odysseus 6K unmanned aerial vehicle (ROV) it was piloting.

The Titan went missing on the 18th of this month, 600 km off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada. On the 22nd, the remains of Titan were discovered two miles under the ocean. It is concluded that the probe was not able to withstand the pressure and imploded. This can only be confirmed by testing the recovered parts of the Titan.


Titan's owners, Ocean Gate Company CEO Stockton Rush, British businessman Hamish Harding, British-Pakistani billionaire Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman, and French explorer Paul Henri Nargeolet were on board.
