Accroding to Dail Mail, on Wednesday, for the first time, the debris from the Titan submersible, which imploded ten days ago, claimed the lives of all five passengers on a deep-sea tour of the Titanic, was hauled ashore.
This morning, at the Canadian Coast Guard pier in St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada, the massive metal fragments, which included the nose with the porthole the five men would have used to see the Titanic unloaded from the Horizon Arctic ship.
It was quickly covered with large tarps and hoisted onto trucks for inspection.
The U.S. Coast Guard also shared that the first two pieces of wreckage found were located about 487 meters below the bottom of the Titanic wreck, including the bow cone and the front and rear of the hull.
Rear Admiral John Mogg said the discovery was "consistent with a catastrophic pressure chamber explosion".
Authorities say the debris will play a crucial role in determining what caused the Titan submersible's catastrophic explosion.
On June 18, the Titan submersible owned by the OecnGate company carried five passengers on a journey to discover the wreckage of the legendary Titanic.
However, the Titan submersible disappeared after 1 hour and 30 minutes of diving. Authorities later confirmed that the Titan submersible was crushed on the ocean floor, killing all five people on board.
Five victims included: OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman Dawood, British Explorer Hamish Harding, and Titanic expert Paul-Henri Nargeolet.
