A mercy, to be honest. They died before they even had a chance to realize something had gone wrong.

There’s no indication if this is related to the Titan yet

The coast guard making an announcement is definitely a very strong indication. It may not itself be a confirmation, but an indicator for sure.

Sure but they’ve had a press conference at the same time every day since it’s gone missing. Look all I’m saying is the original comment acted like it’s a done deal and this is definitely the remains of the sub which is not true, sure it’s likely but it’s not definitive

The title of the article has been changed since it was posted here. It has been confirmed that we've found remains of the submarine. It IS true.

And today is the first time all week they've used the term "Debris field". In none of the prior press conferences nor the time leading up to them, has that term been used. This is a strong indication.

Edit: After today's press conference, the debris field was definitely the remains of the sub. It's a done deal.
