After recovery teams investigating the imploded Titan submersible’s wreckage found a largely intact underwater camera, they discovered a small oddity inside its casing: a perfectly unharmed SD card, as tech YouTuber Scott Manley shared in a post on X last week.

The submersible, operated by expeditions company OceanGate, imploded in the North Atlantic in June 2023 during a dive to the Titanic shipwreck, killing all five passengers on board and prompting investigations into the incident. The found camera, a SubC Rayfin Mk2 Benthic, was discovered with a shattered lens but an intact casing; while the memory card inside was also intact, the data appeared to be encrypted or otherwise inaccessible, as Manley explained in the above thread.
