The Coast Guard has recovered remaining debris from a submersible that imploded on its way to explore the wreck of the Titanic, killing all five onboard, deep beneath the Atlantic Ocean's surface, officials said Tuesday. The salvage mission conducted under an agreement with the U.S. Navy was a follow-up to initial recovery operations on the ocean floor roughly 1,600 feet (488 meters) away from the Titanic, the Coast Guard said. It said Tuesday that the recovery and transfer of remaining parts was completed last Wednesday, and a photo showed the intact aft portion of the 22-foot (6.7-meter) vessel. Investigators believe the Titan imploded as it made its descent into deep North Atlantic waters on June 18. The Coast Guard previously said it recovered presumed human remains along with parts of the Titan after the debris field was located at a depth of 12,500 feet (3,800 meters).

The final debris from the Titan submersible's implosion was recovered by US Coast Guard officials. More presumed human remains were also found from within the debris and will be examined. The Coast Guard said that the recovery and transfer of remaining parts was completed last Wednesday, and a photo showed the intact aft titanium endcap of the 22-foot (6.7-meter) vessel. Additional presumed human remains were carefully recovered from within Titan's debris and transported for analysis by U.S. medical professionals, the Coast Guard said.

The company, which is based in Everett, Wash., made the announcement at the top of its website, above footage of previous Titanic explorations and a link to learn more about how to “explore the world’s most famous shipwreck.”It was not clear when the message was added to the company’s website. There were no further details from the OceanGate, which did not immediately respond to an email. On board the lost submersible were Stockton Rush, 61, the founder and chief executive of OceanGate Expeditions, who was piloting the vessel; Hamish Harding, 58, a British businessman and explorer; Paul-Henri Nargeolet, 77, a French maritime expert; Shahzada Dawood, 48, a British Pakistani businessman; and his son, Suleman, 19.

OceanGate said it is suspending all exploration and commercial operations weeks after its submersible imploded near the Titanic wreckage site killing all five people on board. "OceanGate has suspended all exploration and commercial operations," it read. The Transportation Safety Board of Canada launched a safety investigation into the incident. The Transportation Safety Board of Canada said its investigation will focus on finding "all causal and contributing factors" in the incident "without attributing blame or civil or criminal liability." The National Transportation Safety Board will investigate what happened and issue any safety recommendations to prevent a similar tragedy from happening in the future.

Deep-sea expeditions are "very safe" as long as established safety protocols are followed, Ray Dalio said. "Diving in a classed submersible is no more risky than taking a commercial flight or driving in a car," he said. The billionaire investor is the founder of nonprofit initiative OceanX, which is currently planning explorations in Norway's fjords, the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean. But billionaire investor Ray Dalio, also the founder of the nonprofit ocean exploration initiative OceanX, has pushed back against the paranoia.

☆ OceanGate threatened to sue its former chief pilot in 2018 unless he withdrew allegations that he'd been fired in retaliation for raising safety concerns, says report

David Lochridge claimed he was fired in retaliation for raising safety concerns about the sub. Lochridge was fired in 2018 after a meeting with OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, where they discussed safety. David Lochridge, OceanGate's former chief pilot, was fired in January 2018 after a meeting with OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush. The meeting was about safety concerns Lochridge raised in a report about the submersible, which was previously called the Cyclops II, the report said. In his safety report in January 2018, Lochridge pointed to alleged issues that were either defects or unproven, The New Yorker reported.

Lochridge worked as an independent contractor for OceanGate in 2015, then as an employee between 2016 and 2018, CNN has reported. He soon became tangled in litigation with OceanGate, claiming he was wrongfully terminated for raising concerns about the safety and testing of the Titan. “There’s no way on earth you could have paid me to dive the thing,” Lochridge continued. McCallum, a divemaster who has led expeditions to the Titanic, warned Rush in 2018 about the safety of the Titan submersible, telling the CEO he was putting himself and his clients in danger, CNN previously reported.

An ex-OceanGate worker reportedly raised at least nine Titan safety concerns with CEO Stockton Rush. They included fears the carbon-fiber hull could come apart with repeated dives, per The New Yorker. Experts believe the vessel's carbon-fiber hull may have failed first when the submersible imploded and the five people on board, including Rush, died. He also said in a lawsuit that he reported in 2018 that the submersible's safety could be compromised by poor "quality control and safety" protocols that "paying passengers would not be aware" of. Rush had defended the safety of the submersible and repeatedly criticized what he saw as overly safety regulations blocking innovation.

The US Coast Guard has convened a Marine Board of Investigation to look into the cause of the implosion — the highest level of investigation by the organization, according to CNN. In emails between Rush and Stanley after the test, Stanley warned Rush of the dangers of being impatient.

A man who went on the Titan submersible two years ago said safety was "always the most important thing" for OceanGate — even if the company's CEO Stockton Rush didn't always follow "the crowd." "Safety is an incredible priority and was always the most important thing there," said Newman, who was also friends with Rush.
