Today's only news is that a verdict has finally arrived on the missing Titanic touring submersible, and it is not good. A submarine discovered debris early Thursday in two sections on the ocean floor, near to the Titanic. The debris fields included the OceanGate sub's tailfin, amongst other pieces, which suggests a catastrophic implosion. Some statistics show that the implosion may have been caused due to the building, and that the sub was only able to withstand pressures of 1300 meters, while the sub actually went down to 4000 meters. OceanGate has declared that they send their hearts out to all of the loved ones and family members of the people onboard, but they have not released any comments on the cause of the implosion. The bodies are unlikely to be found, given the high pressures at that depth, but vessels are still searching for them in the area.
