Kayla Jimenez Five men, including one teenager, have been declared dead days after they left for a voyage in a 22-foot submersible to see the wreckage of the Titanic in the North Atlantic Ocean. OceanGate, the company that hosted the mission on the Titan submersible to the Titanic, said Thursday that the entire crew – including its founder and CEO who was the pilot in the mission – were “lost at sea.” The U.S. Coast Guard also announced Thursday that rescue teams had found debris from the ship on the ocean floor “consistent with catastrophic loss of the pressure chamber.” The passengers were well known for their devotion to extreme exploration, desire to collect artifacts from the Titanic or their exorbitant wealth. Each paid $250,000 to ride on the submersible. The Coast Guard said families of the men had been notified of their deaths. "These men were true explorers who shared a distinct spirit of adventure, and a deep passion for exploring and protecting the world’s oceans. Our hearts are with these five souls and every member of their families during this tragic time," OceanGate said in a statement Thursday. Rear Admiral John Mauger of the U.S. Coast Guard said during a press conference Thursday he did not know whether the Coast Guard would be able to recover the bodies. "This is an incredibly unforgiving environment down there on the seafloor," he said. For live updates on this disaster, read USA TODAY’s live blog here. The passengers on the sub were: OceanGate's CEO Stockton Rush Stockton Rush, 61, founded OceanGate in 2009. He was also the co-founder of OceanGate Foundation, a non-profit organization "which aims to catalyze emerging marine technology to further discoveries in marine science, history, and archaeology," according to the company's website. Rush said at a conference in Seattle last year: “One of the reasons I started the business was because I didn’t understand why we were spending 1,000 times as much money to explore space as we were to explore … the oceans. There is no private access to the deep ocean, and yet there’s all this life to be discovered.” At the same conference, he also said submarine safety programs were “over the top in their rules and regulations.” Before graduating from Princeton University with a degree in aerospace engineering in 1984 and obtaining a master’s degree in business administration from the University of California in 1989, Rush had obtained his captain’s rating at the United Airlines Jet Training Institute. He went on to oversee business ventures that included serving on the board of Seattle’s BlueView Technologies and as chairman of Remote Control Technology. Greg Stone, the former executive vice president and chief scientist for Conservation International as well as a friend of Rush, said there was a need for advances in research submersibles. “That’s the direction he was going in. And I liked where he was going,” Stone said. But, he added, Rush “had the problem that a lot of frontier people have. And that is he was ahead of the regulations.” Rush had familial ties to the Titanic, NPR reported. Stockton Rush was married to Wendy Rush, the great-great granddaughter of Isador and Ida Straus, who were on board the sinking Titanic ship together.

The missing submersible Titan imploded near the wreckage of the Titanic, killing all five people, Shahzada Dawood, Suleman Dawood, Paul-Henry Nargeolet, Stockton Rush, and Hamish Harding, the U.S. Coast Guard announced, Thursday, June 22, 2023. British billionaire explorer Hamish Harding Hamish Harding, 58, was chairman of Action Aviation, a global sales company in business aviation. He held three Guinness World Records related to his explorations by plane and into the deep ocean. He had also been to space. He had been looking forward to his Titan ride. “Due to the worst winter in Newfoundland in 40 years, this mission is likely to be the first and only manned mission to the Titanic in 2023," Harding wrote in a Facebook post Saturday, the day before the Titan voyage, according to the New York Times. "A weather window has just opened up and we are going to attempt a dive tomorrow. We started steaming from St. Johns, Newfoundland, Canada yesterday and are planning to start dive operations around 4am tomorrow morning. Until then we have a lot of preparations and briefings to do." Richard Garriott de Cayoux, president of The Explorers Club, mourned the loss of his friends Harding and Paul-Henry Nargeolet on Twitter in a letter Thursday to “fellow explorers.” “They were both drawn to explore, like so many of us, and did so in the name of meaningful science for the betterment of mankind,” he wrote. “Their memories will be a blessing and will continue to inspire us in the name of exploration.” In this photograph released by Action Aviation, company chairman and billionaire adventurer Hamish Harding looks out to sea before boarding the submersible Titan for a dive into the Atlantic Ocean on an expedition to the Titanic on Sunday, June 18, 2023. French maritime and Titanic expert Paul-Henri Nargeolet Paul Henri-Nargeolet, 73, was director of Underwater Research for E/M Group and RMS Titanic, Inc. He successfully dived in a submersible to the site of the Titanic wreckage 37 times and "supervised the recovery of 5,000 artifacts," according to EMGroup's website, which also says he's "widely considered the leading authority on the wreck site." "Born in Chamonix, France, P.H. lived in Africa for 13 years with his family and at 16 returned to France to complete his studies in Paris. He later joined the French Navy for a career that spanned 22 years and saw him rise in the ranks to Commander," according to the company site. “I really hope they will find them all safe,” his daughter Sidonie Nargeolet said prior to Thursday’s announcement. Dive expert David Mearns called Harding “a terrific character," and said Nargeolet was “almost a legend really in the field of deep sea exploration,” BBC reported. | |||||

咁中國人唔好戴用titanium整嘅嘢? | |||||
titanium手錶代表沉咗都唔驚入水，幾好意頭。 | |||||
[聯想] OceanGate Titan 因為要抗拒水進入， 要忍受大水壓力， 最後頂唔住壓力，爆了。 爆了之後， 便與水成一體。。。。咁就安然趟在海床。 人， 要扮鐵, 扮石.....抗拒天主的火。。。咪要忍受「被燒」（猶如地獄） 最後也是會熔化了，燃燒了， 與「火」成為一體， 本身也是火。咁就無哂痛苦矣。。（猶如在天國） (經書上, 天主常以「火」形象代表) | |||||
中國人好講五行相生相剋。火驚水，所以有水就唔怕天主一 | |||||
你唔好一隻通豬睇到老 | |||||
呢套理論最近上埋迪士尼了 | |||||
總會有啲嘢係滅到火嘅 | |||||
水...係咁多種中最無銀用既 咁就唔好亂講水剋火, 水火不容....... | |||||
聽落好似有啲「憎人富貴」咁.... 因為佢地有$$$$可以玩啲咁野:深潛睇鐵達尼....., 所以抵死 | |||||
| |||||
黑心既人睇乜都咁黑 | |||||
你睇到我個心係「黑」 (睇乜都咁黑) ,, 咁你都唔「白」得去邊 | |||||
所以都未必要將財富deposit喺天上。 希望這個諗法為各位網友解決一些人生問題 | |||||
你都唔肯開戶口，點存錢? | |||||
你啲孝順子孫係咁塞錢俾你洗....真係富貴逼人來， 到時你去「深溝」探險都得, 唔使為$250000濕濕碎既錢而肉赤 | |||||
貴行戶口minimum deposit係幾多？我未必夠 | |||||
我呢世人第一次明白到原來窮都有窮嘅好處。 因為 Bottleneck + Fat theory 似乎先係真理 Bottleneck Theory 假設你 腦健康 6分 眼健康 5分 心肺 10分 腸胃 2分 你的健康 = 2分 再加埋 健康 2分 快樂 5分 財富 10分 你的生活指數 2 分 相反，如果有人健康3分，財富3分，生活指數都有3分，比你高 Fat Theory 越多營養，越多脂肪，對身體係負擔，而唔係動力，唔係健康 如果將錢都視作係營養，咁會點？ 不過，其實錢可以儲銀行唔用，所以好多時係，D吝嗇孤寒財主先長壽，反而大駛行過豪華生活的財主，唔夠班孤寒財主健康長命。 |
