Titan submersible imploded due to poor engineering, say US officials

The US officials have stated that the Titan submersible, which imploded during its journey to the wreck of the Titanic, was the result of poor engineering. The submersible, which carried five people, disappeared from sensors and was later found to have imploded, leading to the tragic loss of all on board. The investigation into the incident revealed that the submersible's design and construction were the primary factors contributing to the catastrophic failure. Authorities have emphasized the need for more robust safety standards and better oversight in the industry to prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future. The incident has raised concerns about the safety and reliability of deep-sea exploration equipment, and it has prompted calls for stricter regulations and improved safety protocols to ensure the protection of both passengers and crew members in such high-risk ventures.
