On the afternoon of Thursday (June 22), the United States Coast Guard Mog Mog said at a press conference that the unmanned submersible in the Canadian Arctic Horizon Odysseus was about the head of the Titanine ship.1600 feet (about 500 meters), 3,800 meters under the North Atlantic Ocean found that the Titan crushed components were found, and more wreckage was found afterwards.
Mog said at a press conference held in Boston that the wreckage includes two parts of the stern cone and the resistance of pressure -resistant hulls. Experts analyzed the signs of disaster explosion in the submersible stress compartment by experts.
The Wall Street Journal quoted anonymous naval officials reported that the U.S. Navy's underwater sound monitoring equipment used to detect submarines detected the sound of internal explosion.Officials said: The U.S. Navy analyzed acoustic data and found that the area area of the Titan submersible operating area has an abnormal phenomenon that is consistent with internal explosion or explosion.
It is difficult to determine that the Titan submersible explosion is still determined, and when the seabed search operation is not determined when it is over.Mog added that the search team will continue to collect information and try to determine the cause of internal explosion.
There was no sign showing that the Titan collided with Titani wreckage.In addition, the underwater noise detected by search and rescue personnel has nothing to do with the submersible.
