The Discovery and Netflix films have now both been released.

As expected, they are "docu-dramas" scripted to beat on Stockton Rush. The technical details were slim.

That is where this book fills the void. The information in this book explains the impact of the leadership of Stockton discussed in the films.

It's not written with the intent to simply disparage Stockton Rush. However, the analysis of decisions is thoughtful and honest.

Each chapter is special due to the arduous task of combining testimony about a particular subject from multiple witnesses over nine days of hearings.

"I, yeah, I wouldn't say that there was no effort. There was, there was no desire by Stockton to go do it" (USCG, 9/16/24, Nissen, 2:23:22).

Titan Submersible Saga in Stories

Each chapter explores an implosion subject in story form. It's a compelling mix of testimony, author analysis and comments, backed by evidence, science, analysis, and illustrations.

This book is the most efficient way to get the important points from the incredibly slow-paced Coast Guard hearings.

It will provide perspective to the documentaries, which will have interviews that are not under oath.

The final reports of the Coast Guard and National Transportation Safety Board will be easier to understand if you read this book.

Exploring the Titan Dive History

The U.S. Coast Guard dive history graphic, taken from their presentation at the hearing, has been modified and improved for the book.

Custom labeling is added to help identify important dives during the expeditions.

"I just finished reading the book, and I have to say it’s several levels above the Netflix or Discovery documentaries. You literally covered every aspect related to the Titan implosion, giving readers a complete picture of the situation. Great job" (YouTube Comment)

"I'm up to the viewport chapter in your book and I am amazed so far! All of the information is presented so well. Definitely worth the purchase and I can’t wait to get further into it" (YouTube Comment)

What Readers Are Saying About the Book

"Amazing, I just got my one on Kindle, thanks for all your work." (YouTube Comment)

"Excellent work." (YouTube Comment)

"Just bought it. The coverage has been SOOOOO BORING across pretty much all mediums. The dramatic nonsense is so played out. Thanks for making this, I'll read it over my vacation soon." (YouTube Comment)

"Just bought it yesterday! Wonderful book!" (YouTube Comment)

"Just finished the book and excellent read. I'm an engineer (electrical though, so not super applicable knowledge) and I found your writing to be a perfect mix of informative and technical." (YouTube Comment)

This was a very informative read, which allowed me to more easily understand the many engineering issues and other problems of the Oceangate Titan dives. Rather than sensationalizing the tragedy or focusing on the character of Stockton Rush, it gives an analysis of the known data with helpful illustrations, and helps give context to the Coast Guard and NTSB hearings.
