NTSB Titan Sub Report: Carbon Fiber Hull Defects, More - YouTube

Jeff Ostroff reviews photos and preliminary testing released by the NTSB of the doomed OceanGate Titan submersible wreckage sitting on the ocean floor just 330 yards from the bow of the RMS Titanic, which sank in 1912. Testing reveals defects during the carbon fiber hull manufacturing, and the RMS’s potential failure (real-time hull monitoring system) to indicate a hull failure was imminent. The wreckage of the OceanGate Titan sub was recorded as rescuers salvaged the debris from the bottom of the ocean floor with the Pelagius Research ROV known as Odysseus 6000. The ROV Odysseus 6K is an easily transportable, competent, and deep-sea system that integrates into ships. The ROV supports executing time-critical search, rescue, and recovery operations. This video shows the Ocean Gate Titan submersible from a titanium hemisphere nose cone and a piece of carbon fiber in the foreground. 🎥 WATCH NEXT: 🎥 Coast Guard Has OFFICIAL OceanGate Titan Sub Transcript:
