The Titanic shipwreck site in the North Atlantic has attracted tourists for quite some time. Recently, a group of five people took a submersible watercraft early Sunday to enjoy the place that is now missing.
As per the U.S. Coast Guard, the airplanes searching the Titanic Submarine heard underwater noises. No one knows what kind of noise that can be! Could survivors be trying to make contact?
The submarine is closed from the outside, and it is absolutely impossible for passengers to open it from the inside. The Titanic submarine was a titanium-crafted 22-foot-long carbon fiber watercraft.
If you are wondering, is there a bathroom inside for the passengers? The answer is YES. The submarine has a compact bathroom inside. It is the only private place that requires you to draw a curtain (sigh of relief!).
The bathroom is the only place in the Titanic submarine with a seat, but the most concerning part about the submarine is that it is left with only 20 hours of oxygen, which makes the work of rescue and search teams more difficult.
Who Is in the Titanic Submarine?
The Titanic submarine left for the shipwreck site with a full capacity of five people. It included The founder and CEO of OceanGate Expedition, Stockton Rush; British businessmen Hamish Harding and Shahzada Dawood, along with his son; and French maritime expert Paul-Henri Nargeolet. Paul is an expert and has taken over thirty dives to the Titanic shipwreck site.
There are rumors that it was a murderous plot that was then disguised as an accident. The Titanic (1912) was also rumored to be a planned mass murder that carried a few influential people.
However, not directly, Germany and the United States couldn’t resume their cordial relations after the Titanic sank in 1912, which further led to WWI.
Returning to the story, the submersible watercraft is owned by Oceangate, which also operates the vessel. They have been providing vessels for expeditions for quite some time now. They offer crewed submersibles for scientific research and commercial projects.
The submarine left with 96 hours of oxygen, calculated to run out by Thursday. There is no way for the sub to get more oxygen.
What Must Have Happened to the Titanic Submarine?
The Titanic submarine went missing on Sunday, and since then, the search and rescue team has been tirelessly looking for it. Rear Admiral John Mauger revealed-
“This is an incredibly complex site there; you have to remember that it’s the wreck site of the Titanic, so there is a lot of metal and different objects in the water around the site.”

According to former U.S. pilot Colonel Terry Virts, a few things can go wrong inside the ship. The Titan may be stuck somewhere if the emergency systems are not working. It could be between two rocks. It is also anticipated that the Titanic could have sunk just like the Titanic (1912) due to an unforeseen accident. Nevertheless, a robot has been sent to the area around the Titanic wreck to search for the vehicle.
Do you think it could be a planned murder or a simple accident? What do you think must have happened to the Titan submarine?
Is there any conspiracy behind this sudden disappearance? Will the U.S. Coast Guard be able to find the submarine in time?
