Investigating the debris is a crucial part of an investigation into why the Titan imploded on its way to view wreckage of the Titanic
The Canadian ship Horizon Arctic brought Odysseus to the search area that had been established for the Titan, and the underwater robot was offloaded into the ocean on June 22. The ship returned to port Wednesday with mangled chunks of the submersible.
Cassano said Deep Energy deployed a submersible but it was only able to reach a depth of 2,700 meters . The Titan’s debris was located on the seafloor about 12,500 feet underwater. Pelagic has locations outside Buffalo and in Massachusetts. Odysseus was built by MPH Engineering of Largo, Florida, and became operational in 2016. Its primary use is deep-sea science, but Pelagic Research “always knew that we’d be called at some point, and so we prepared the system for” rescue and recovery, Cassano said.
Even after years of ROV use in science and industry, removing items from the ocean floor remains painstaking and difficult, said Andy Bowen, a principal engineer at Woods Hole who specializes in remotely operated submersibles.
