Nonprofit group Ocean Exploration Trust explored the wreck of Imperial Japanese Navy submarines I-201 and I-401 off the coast of Oahu.
A rare menu from the Titanic's first-class restaurant and a pocket watch owned by a man who died in the catastrophe are being sold at auction in the U.K.
Paul-Henri Nargeolet, the director of underwater research for RMS Titanic, Inc, died with four others on the Titan's final dive near the Titanic in June.
The U.S. Coast Guard said it recovered "additional presumed human remains" and what is believed to be the last of the debris from the Titan submersible.
The government cites a law that treats the wreck as a hallowed gravesite. Its objections have nothing to do with the Titan submersible implosion.
One expert said implosion would have happened in a "thousandth of a second" — so fast that passengers didn't have "time to realize what happened."
A co-founder of OceanGate supported the trips during an interview in which he learned that the massive search for the sub uncovered debris.
"I think it was General [Douglas] MacArthur who said, 'You're remembered for the rules you break,'" Rush said abord the Titan in 2021. "And I've broken some rules to make this."
The Titan submersible went missing Sunday while on a journey to see the wreckage of the Titanic. On Thursday, a U.S. Navy official said the Navy detected "an acoustic anomaly consistent with an implosion" shortly after the sub, named Titan, lost contact with the surface Sunday. CBS News correspondent Roxana Saberi reports from Boston.
Passengers on OceanGate submersible included noted adventurer Hamish Harding and Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood and his son.
The U.S. Coast Guard said the sub experienced a "catastrophic loss of the pressure chamber," and confirmed that a debris field found on the sea floor was pieces of the missing sub.
The U.S. Coast Guard said two new vessels had reached the area and deployed their ROVs to scan the ocean floor.
The last time the couple was seen on the Titanic, Ida Straus told her husband "Where you go, I go," and they were holding hands on deck before a wave took them out to sea.
Aaron Newman is also an investor in OceanGate Expeditions — the company that owns the missing Titan submersible.
The noises were picked up by a Canadian aircraft, the U.S. Coast Guard says. The submersible went missing with five people on board.
Brand new images of the Titanic may shed new light on how the iconic liner sank more than a century ago.
Several major international tragedies happened on April 15.
