The United States Coast Guard has found possible “human remains” among the wreckage of the Titan submersible, which imploded on June 18 as he descended toward the wreckage of the Titanic, with five occupants on board. The remains were found “among” the debris of the submersible and will be analyzed by “medical professionals” in the US, the country’s Coast Guard said in a statement.

The US opened a high-level inquiry, known as a Marine Board of Inquiry, on Sunday to look into the submersible accident. In the statement, the head of the MBI, Captain Jason Neubauer, said that the evidence recovered today will provide “critical” information to investigators from “various jurisdictions” investigating the cause of this tragedy, but noted that the work has not finished.

“There is still a substantial amount of work to be done to understand theThe factors that led to the catastrophic loss of the Titan and help ensure that a similar tragedy does not happen again,” Neubar said in the statement.

This finding comes the same day thatanother part of the remains of the submersible Titan arrived in Canada, recovered by the Canadian company to which the Polar Prince, the Titan’s mother ship, also belongs. With these remains, the Canadian authorities are also conducting investigations to determine the causes of the submersible accident.

Polar Prince was in charge of towing the submersible Titan on the 16th with its five occupants from the port of San Juan de Terranova to the point in the Atlantic where it was submerged, some 600 kilometers to the southeast, where the remains of the Titanic rest. .

According to US authorities, Polar Prince lost contact with Titan on Sunday June 18, 105 minutes after starting his dive towards the Titanic. The Titan accident caused the death of the five occupants of it: the millionaire Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood with his son Suleman, a 19-year-old student; British explorer Hamish Harding; the French explorer Paul-Henry Nargeolet and the CEO of the firm OceanGate, Stockton Rush.
