Nearly two years after the Titan submersible disappeared during a voyage to the Titanic wreckage, the U.S. Coast Guard has released a 20-second audio clip believed to capture the implosion. The recording, taken 900 miles from the disaster site, features a muffled boom sound followed by silence, indicating the suspected acoustic signature of the implosion that claimed the lives of all five passengers.
The U.S. Coast Guard has released a 20-second audio clip believed to have captured the final moments of the Titan submersible before it imploded in June 2023 amid a voyage to visit the Titanic.
Nearly two years after the underwater vessel disappeared in the Atlantic Ocean during a mission to explore the wreckage of the RMS Titanic, the U.S. Coast Guard released a 20-second recording believed to feature audio of the implosion as part of an ongoing investigation into the accident. In the clip, recorded roughly 900 miles from the disaster site, a muffled boom sound followed by a chilling silence indicated what the Coast Guard described as the “suspected acoustic signature” of the implosion, which claimed the lives of passengers Stockton Rush, Hamish Harding, Paul-Henri Nargeolet, Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman Dawood.
Notably, the recording — which was shared publicly Feb. 7 — also revealed a more precise indication of when the implosion took place. An onscreen note at the start of the clip highlighted that the audio was captured at 9:34 a.m. EDT on June 18, 2023, roughly 90 minutes after the Titan submerged around 8 a.m. off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada.
