In this episode of the Compendium, we’re exploring the Oceangate Titan disaster—a chilling tale of ambition, oversight, and tragedy. On June 18, 2023, the Titan submersible imploded during a descent to the Titanic wreck, claiming the lives of all five aboard, including OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush. Despite prior warnings about the sub's carbon-fiber hull and safety concerns, the expedition proceeded, leading to catastrophic failure. We delve into the events leading up to the disaster, the aftermath, and the broader implications for deep-sea tourism and engineering ethics.
