From a Washington Post story headlined “Who Were the Five Passengers Inside the Titan Submersible?

Here’s what we know about the five men who set out on a costly tourism expedition aboard the OceanGate vessel, named the Titan.

1. Stockton Rush

Rush, the pilot of the submersible, is the founder and CEO of OceanGate, a private research and tourism company that has conducted more than a dozen underwater expeditions since 2010. The company was created in 2009 and had completed other dives to the Titanic wreck in the past two years.
