ST. JOHN'S, N.L. — Since the doomed Titan made its descent to view the Titan ic wreck one year ago, other unregistered submersibles have been operating within Canadian waters, says the Transportation Safety Board of Canada.
The investigation has learned that before and after June 2023, a number of submersibles with people on board operated in Canadian waters and that while some are registered in Canada or another country, others are not."The investigation has been unable to confirm whether these submersibles have been subject to oversight by or other certifying bodies," the safety board says in its letter dated Thursday.
Titan was not registered or certified in Canada or elsewhere to ensure that it met safety standards, and marine engineers had warned that the "experimental" approach taken by the vessel's owner — OceanGate — could have catastrophic consequences. In 2018, a group of engineers and industry professionals had written to the Titan's owners to express their concern that the vessel had not been certified. In a 2019 blog post, OceanGate explained that Titan — made from carbon fibre and titanium — was not classed because the process could inhibit innovation.NEW DELHI — A cargo train rammed into a passenger train in India's eastern state of West Bengal on Monday, killing at least nine people and injuring dozens of others, officials said.
