A submersible carrying five people to see the the Titanic wreckage is still missing after it lost contact with its support ship, leaving the people on board with only enough oxygen for 3 to 4 days. Here’s what we know so far.
The Titan submersible had been on its way to the famous wreckage, off the coast of St John’s, Newfoundland, in Canada, when it lost contact with its support ship, leaving the people on board with only enough oxygen for 3 to 4 days. Here’s what we know so far. How did they go missing? The submersible was part of an eight-day journey conducted by OceanGate Expeditions.
Other factors complicating the search include its remote location, local weather conditions, and unknowns like the state of the submersible and whether it has working equipment like acoustic pingers that can be detected by search teams. According to CNN meteorologists, the area is seeing choppy seas up to six feet high, and foggy conditions. While not unusual for the region, this could cause delays for search parties due to difficulty using aerial equipment in low clouds.
