As time passes and the Titan submersible’s oxygen supply drops to dangerously low levels, the quest to save the five passengers on board grows more urgent.
The Titan submarine, which is on a mission to visit the famous Titanic shipwreck while transporting five passengers, has run into a serious problem. The sub carries less than 20 hours of reserve oxygen at this time because communication with the operator was lost on Sunday morning. For the people on board to be safe, immediate action is needed.

Unknown “banging” sounds were heard coming from the underwater search area by Canadian planes assisting in the rescue operations. The noises were reported by the Coast Guard on Tuesday and were described as “underwater noises.”
“Canadian P-3 aircraft detected underwater noises in the search area,” tweeted the US Coast Guard. “As a result, ROV operations were relocated in an attempt to explore the origin of the noises. Those TOV searches have yielded negative results but continue.”
USCG added that “the data from the P-3 aircraft has been shared with [their] U.S. Navy experts for further analysis which will be considered in future search plans.”
Internal documents obtained by Rolling Stone show that heavy pounding noises from a crew, as reported to the Department of Homeland Security, could indicate that they are alive and trying to signal for assistance.
The emails state,“RCC Halifax launched a P8, Poseidon, which has underwater detection capabilities from the air.”
“The P8 deployed sonobuoys, which reported a contact in a position close to the distress position,” the email updates read. “The P8 heard banging sounds in the area every 30 minutes. Four hours later additional sonar was deployed and banging was still heard.”
Despite a thorough search that has covered more than 10,000 square miles, the vessel has not been found.

Multiple organizations are collaborating on search and rescue operations in the First Coast Guard District, according to Response Coordinator Capt. Jamie Frederick.
“While the Coast Guard has assumed the role of Search and Rescue Mission Coordinator, we do not have all of the necessary expertise and equipment required in a search of this nature,” said Frederick. “The Unified Command brings that expertise and additional capability together to maximize effort in solving this complex problem.”
