Former employees of the company that owned an experimental submersible that imploded on its way to the wreck of the Titanic are scheduled to testify in front of a Coast Guard investigatory board at an upcoming hearing. The Titan submersible imploded in the North Atlantic in June 2023, killing all five people on board and setting off worldwide debate about the future of private undersea exploration. The U.S. Coast Guard quickly convened a high-level investigation into what happened, and that inquiry is slated to reach its public hearing phase on Sept. 16. The sub owner, OceanGate, suspended operations after the implosion, and its co-founder died in the implosion.
