There are still many questions surrounding the fateful tragedy of the OceanGate-owned Titan submersible, where its five crew members, including co-founder and CEO Stockton Rush, lost their lives after an implosion caused by a catastrophic loss of pressure when They were heading to explore the wreckage of the Titanic on June 18.
However, despite what happened and while the investigation into the disaster in the mission to the mythical shipwreck continues, according to the OceanGate website, there are new expeditions scheduled for 2024.
Does OceanGate still organize expeditions to the Titanic?
Although we doubt that anyone would dare to embark on another adventure like this in the near future, the American company has not stopped promoting two new expeditions for next year.
Marketing messages are highlighted on the company’s website, which calls the experience an “opportunity to get out of the ordinary and discover something truly extraordinary.”
Become one of the few to see the Titanic wreck site with your own eyes. […] Get ready for an unforgettable adventure in the depths of the ocean.
The dates available for the two missions, of eight days each, are June 12-20 and June 21-29, 2024, for a fee of $250,000, which includes diving, necessary training, expedition equipment, meals on board and accommodation, except travel and personal insurance.
In addition, curiously, OceanGate indicates in its offer that Paul-Henri Nargeolet himself, nicknamed “Mr. Titanic”, the French diver who died in the implosion of Titan, will be part of the mission to the wreck. Therefore, it is not known if the information on its website is a deliberate action or a simple oversight and lack of content updating.
It is worth mentioning that after the Titan disaster, multiple irregularities by OceanGate came to light, such as its refusal to submit its submersible to a certification process to ensure that it complied with all safety protocols.
For now, while the United States and Canada carry out a joint investigation into the causes of the implosion of the Titan submersible, there is still no official information on what the future of the company will be after the death of its CEO and the negative effect of the tragic accident. .
