The Titanic-bound tourist submarine that disappeared on Sunday morning has only 96 hours of life support installed, US Coast Guard officials said as the search continues past its first day.
Multiple US and Canadian ships and airplanes have been deployed to the area in search of the submarine in case it successfully returned from the depths but lacks the means of communication with its partnering surface boat.
Mauger added that the Canadian Coast Guard has sent out multiple sonar buoys capable of detecting the submarine even at the bottom of the ocean. The Coast Guard said on Monday that the submarine’s operator, OceanGate Expeditions, informed them that the missing vessel can sustain its 5 occupants for about 4 days before it runs out of oxygen.“Our thoughts are with the families and the crew members aboard the submersible.”
The company noted that because of its location in the middle of the Atlantic, they rely on Elon Musk’s Starlink satellites for its communications at sea.
