    Both titanium support rings were recovered intact. These are what bonded the carbon fiber hull to the titanium ends. There isn’t any evidence of carbon fiber still attached in the photos/ videos of the debris.

    Edit: more photos

    This is haunting.

    There’s no gore or anything, it’s just twisted metal and cables. Still, seeing it and thinking “humans were alive in there mere days ago” made my gut drop. It’s not like looking at wreckage of an old ship or plane or something, it’s different. Because it’s so small, it feels more intimate. Like looking at a coffin vs looking at a graveyard

    Wow I didn’t know they were going to recover it at all. Pretty cool. Can’t wait to read about how shitty the design was.
