OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush claimed NASA and aerospace manufacturers helped develop and design the carbon fiber hull, but the space agency said it had little involvement.
Also chiming in was a Boeing official, who said recommendations made by the aerospace manufacturer were ignored. Greg Wehner is a breaking news reporter for Fox News Digital.
Justin Jackson, a materials engineer for NASA, said the agency intended to play a role in building and testing the carbon fiber hull, but the COVID-19 pandemic prevented it from fulfilling that role. Story tips and can be sent to Greg.Wehner@Fox.com and on Twitter @GregWehner.
