The US Navy detected an acoustic anomaly that was likely the fatal implosion of the submersible carrying five crew members to the Titanic wreck site. Coast Guard officials announced that the craft suffered a catastrophic implosion, killing all five aboard. Authorities rushed ships, planes, and other equipment to the site of the disappearance, expanding their coverage area to thousands of miles. Rescuers were hoping underwater sounds detected Tuesday and Wednesday might help narrow the search, but the sounds were likely generated by something other than the Titan. The Coast Guard will continue searching near the Titanic for more clues about what happened to the Titan. Efforts to recover the submersible and the remains of the five men who died will also continue. OceanGate Expeditions, the company that owned and operated the submersible, said all five people in the vessel, including its CEO and pilot Stockton Rush, have sadly been lost.
