'All Good Here' Was 1 Of The Final Texts Sent From The Doomed Titan Submersible
HuffPost
Crew aboard the Titan were communicating via text messages with staff aboard the support ship Polar Prince.
Among the last words heard from the crew of an experimental submersible headed for the wreck of the Titanic were “all good here,” according to a visual re-creation of the journey of the Titan before it imploded, killing all five on board.
The U.S. Coast Guard presented the animation Monday on the first day of what is expected to be a two-week hearing on the causes of the implosion. Crew aboard the Titan were communicating via text messages with staff aboard the support ship Polar Prince, according to the presentation.
The crew lost contact after an exchange of texts about the submersible’s depth and weight as it descended. The Polar Prince then sent repeated messages asking if the Titan could still see the ship on its onboard display. One of Titan’s final responses, which became spotty as it descended, was “all good here.”
The Titan imploded on June 18, 2023, setting off a worldwide debate about the future of private undersea exploration.
The Titan was left exposed to the elements while in storage for seven months in 2022 and 2023, Coast Guard representatives said in their initial remarks Monday. The hull was also never reviewed by any third parties as is standard procedure, they said. That and the submersible’s unconventional design subjected the Titan to scrutiny in the undersea exploration community.
