The latest on the search for the Titan submersible and outlook for rescue
By The Associated Press
Sophisticated equipment is on the way to the North Atlantic Ocean to help search for a submersible vessel that was carrying five people when it disappeared on its way to the wreckage of the Titanic. The U.S. Coast Guard has been leading the search for the Titan since it disappeared Sunday. Officials say aircraft detected underwater noises Tuesday and Wednesday, but they are not sure what caused the sounds. Robotic vessels are scouring the area, and additional ships and vessels were sent. Experts warn that getting equipment to the site could take too long given the Titan’s dwindling oxygen supply, which could run out Thursday morning.
