00:00Newly released footage shows wreckage of the Ocean Gate Titan submersible at the bottom of the ocean.
00:05The footage was shot with remotely operated vehicles and provided by Pelagic Research Services.
00:10It was released by the U.S. Coast Guard's Marine Board of Investigation as part of hearings on the disaster.
00:15The Titan imploded in June of last year, killing five people on board and triggering an extensive search campaign.
00:21The New York Times reports that testimony in the recent hearings,
00:24including from Ocean Gate contractor Tim Katterson,
00:27indicates that the victims may not have been aware that they were in danger.
00:31USA Today quotes a statement released by Ocean Gate Monday as saying,
00:34There are no words to ease the loss endured by the families impacted by this devastating incident,
00:39but we hope that this hearing will help shed light on the cause of the tragedy.
