The crew compartment was separated from the rest of the shuttle soon after the fuel tank ruptured. It crashed into the ocean with a force of 200g's, and this is thought to have killed the crew, although they were probably unconscious at the time. The cabin was found relatively intact, although damaged, along with the bodies of the crew.

No. Have you ever watched the movie titanic? They said that they can never find it.. Because it was still in Rose's hands. It is now in the ocean, and at the bottom, no one has yet found it. (suffice to say, it never existed at all) The 'Heart of the Ocean' is fictitious. It is based off of the Hope Diamond, but is otherwise complete myth.
