The search for a missing submersible craft that was exploring the wreckage of the Titanic has taken a dramatic turn as the U.S. Coast Guard has reported detecting underwater noises in the area. The sub, which was carrying five people, has been missing since Tuesday and the Coast Guard has warned that it may run out of oxygen by Thursday.
The noises were picked up by a Canadian P-3 aircraft and the Coast Guard has relocated its underwater operations in an effort to locate the source of the noises. The data from the P-3 aircraft has been shared with U.S. Navy experts for further analysis.
One of the five people on board the missing sub is a record-setting daredevil who has flown to space and traversed the planet’s deepest underwater trenches. British explorer and businessman Hamish Harding, who completed a record-setting dive in the Mariana Trench in 2021, has acknowledged that being rescued is not always a possibility.
The Coast Guard is continuing its search and rescue operations in the area and is urging anyone with information to contact them. The search for the missing submersible craft and its five passengers is ongoing and the Coast Guard is hopeful that they will be found soon.
