U.S. Navy analyzes acoustic data that may represent Titan implosion
A U.S. Navy acoustic system detected an ‘anomaly’ Sunday that was likely the Titan’s fatal implosion, according to a senior military official.
The Navy went back and analyzed its acoustic data after the Titan submersible was reported missing Sunday. Coast Guard officials on Thursday announced that the craft suffered a catastrophic implosion, killing all five aboard. That anomaly was “consistent with an implosion or explosion in the general vicinity of where the TITAN submersible was operating when communications were lost,” according to a senior Navy official.
Missing submersible experienced ‘catastrophic implosion’ and five passengers believed to be dead, U.S. Coast Guard saysThe Navy passed on the information to the Coast Guard, which continued its search because the Navy did not consider the data to be definitive.
