The Titanic submarine's remains were found "almost immediately" by a rescue robot, according to the head of the search operation.
Ed Cassano, chief executive of the New York-based Pelagic Research Services, said the firm's ROV vehicle found the submersible four days after the OceanGate Titan went missing. It made its way to the site of the Titanic at 5am on June 22 after the vessel, which had five people on-board, lost contact with the mothership 45 minutes into the deep-sea dive.
The Mirror reports that the robot was the only vessel used during the search that was capable of diving all the way to the Titanic wreckage. Just hours into the trip, it became a rescue mission.
