Titanic mission: Stockton Rush, the CEO of OceanGate, descended from two Founding Fathers in the United States

Stockton Rush III, full name Richard Stockton Rush III, is the CEO of OceanGate and one of five people boarded Titan's submersible to visit the Titanic wreck's site. Mr Rush, 61, has always been optimistic. He was the youngest jet transport-rated pilot in the world at 19 years old before graduating from Princeton with a degree in aerospace engineering. This was all part of his aspirations to become the first man on Mars. But, Rush, who includes Founding Fathers Benjamin Rush and Richard Stockton, found that the final frontier was actually the ocean at 44 years old. Mars was not economically viable, according to him. "I realized that what I really wanted to do was explore," he said in a 2017 interview. I wanted to be Captain Kirk, but the ocean is our final frontier in our lifetime.'
