The NOAA has released audio of the Titan sub’s implosion.

Captured by one of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s passive acoustic recorders moored approximately 900 miles away, the audio clip includes sounds believed to be the acoustic signature of OceanGate’s Titan submarine’s implosion on June 18th, 2023

The clip was released through the US Department of Defense’s DVIDS website late last week and mostly features static briefly interrupted by a deep reverberating rumble of the submarine’s final moments.
