we turned out to the north atlantic were hope, has run out, and the search for the crew of the title submersible. rescuers have confirmed that the breed phone near the site of the titanic belong to the some emotional news conference, the u. s. coast guard announced that the 5 people on board had died in a catastrophic event. the vessel disappeared on sunday, off the canadian coast, while on a dive to the site of the titanic ship reg, among those on board was the head of the company that designed and operates the sub rescue were said of failure of the vessels pressure chamber was the likely cause of the tragedy this morning and the r o v are remote operated vehicle from the vessel horizon, our tech discovered the tao cone of the titan submersible, approximately 1600 feet from the fowl of that tie tax on the sea floor.
1:04 am
the r o be subsequently found additional debris in consultation with experts from within the unified command. the debris is consistent with the catastrophic loss of the pressure chamber. upon this determination, we immediately notified the family. on behalf of the united states coast guard and the entire unified command, i offer my deepest condolences to the families. i'm now joined by so sound there couple yano. he's a history professor at campbell university, north carolina, to focus on maritime policy. and welcome to the program. so sound as we try to get rid of the sounds we just heard. it appears the sub was crushed by the extreme pressure around the titanic. how likely is it that we will find out exactly what
1:05 am
causes the disaster? i think at this point, what you're going to see, the recovery become now is to bring parts of the submersible back to the back to the surface so that they can study to see exactly what causes failure to be a couple of things they're looking at. they'll look at the size of the debris field . if it's over a very large area that would have meant that the submersible have suffered the failure on the way down to titanic. if it's in a much more concentrated area, that would have been while it was at depths smells. so this immersed what was built to a much different design. and it's one of the reasons why you don't see it as a classified submersible by an outside agency. most of, most of those use of very deep depths, are basically just metal spears, with window ports put into them. this was constructed in a much different way. it had these large titanium caps on the end, but then it had this carbon fiber 2 that allowed it to hold the cit more people
1:06 am
inside in a much different environment than you usually get in the submersible. but as this is a new technology, it had not been fully certified and tested. and that was one of the big issues regarding the use of this by ocean gate. now i want to stay with that point about testing, see of ocean gate. stockton rush had was rather vocal about his view or safety testing. he even said it was a pure waste of time, but we do have maritime safety standards for a reason, don't we? we do, and actually most of those maritime safety standards. a lot of them generated from titanic, of all things, 2 years after the sinking of titanic. you saw the safety of life. it's the convention that puts in place many of the provisions that we see today in modern ships. the issue for ocean gate was they didn't want to go through a very rigorous classification society, the likes of abs, d, n, v, or lloyd's. because this was such a new technology, he was worried, is going to take a long time for them to catch up to him. if you look at this, the commercial space industry in the u. s. right now,
1:07 am
a lot of criticism comes from those sectors because they have to conform to federal aviation administration. in the us standards was you were saying there ocean data didn't need to visit the title, it wasn't certified to dime, so deep and even called an experimental craft. so how could they still very passengers with it as well? it is that there wasn't certified to go to a depth and they've been at that depth repeated times. but the fact that they kind of a skew, the idea of certification and classification meant that they didn't do the rigorous checking and basically maintenance schedule and safety checks that you would do normal ship sailing across the atlantic. for example, have to undergo periodic changes in, in certifications, dry dock, things that didn't happen here. and when you're operating at a depth of 3800 meters, one in perfection, one flaw at that pressure is cataclysmic. and unfortunately, that's what probably happened here. now if you were saying earlier, there is
1:08 am
a certain irony that the titanic and the titan both ignored or issued some safety standards and sank. can any good come out of this disaster? i think it can. i think in many ways, you know, some are supposed to use every day around the world in a lot of commercial industries. and i think under deep submergence use of vehicles right now is very much akin to the early aviation industry in the 20th century. where it was the purview of governments of corporations and of the rich, but overtime because of accidents and innovations. we don't think twice about getting on a commercial jet and flying around the world at 40000 feet. there will be a time where people getting some most of those and go down to 13000 feet, 4000 meters without thinking about it. we're just not there yet for i'm afraid we're going to leave it there. there was sound sound there quickly. i know. thank you for joining us tonight. thank you. let's take a look out some other stories making headlines around the world. the us government

relations of that time. as you leave the foss boutique economic delete book is protect you. leaders from developing countries agree with that. one is saying they are too deep in debt due to the high interest rate, they must deal with in a way. and they can not allocate funds to build infrastructure that would either help the poor or shield people from the impact of climate change. all out, if it's the one is date and instead of focusing on development as ease dealing with all of these classes, whether or not difficult enough. so we also faced the bi stating climate effect. for these reasons, the prime minister of barbados has proposed the bridge town initiative. it aims to give vulnerable countries access less to affordable loans. with the help of the
