Boston Ma, the US Coast Guard is searching for five persons after the Canadian research vessel Polar Prince lost contact with their submersible during a dive, approximately 900 miles east of Cape Cod, Sunday morning. A Coast Guard Air Station Elizabeth City, North Carolina, C-130 Hercules aircraft, as well as a Canadian P8 aircraft equipped with underwater sonar capability, are currently searching for the missing submersible.
A submersible carrying five passengers to see the wreck of the Titanic was reported missing Monday morning—a vessel that’s been described as “experimental,” is operated by a single button and made its first successful dive to the shipwreck in 2021.
The carbon-fiber submersible named the Titan, part of a mission by OceanGate Expeditions, carried a pilot, a renowned British adventurer, two members of an iconic Pakistani business family and another passenger. Authorities reported the vessel overdue Sunday night about 435 miles (700 kilometers) south of St. John’s, Newfoundland, according to Canada’s Joint Rescue Coordination Center.
The submersible had a 96-hour oxygen supply when it put to sea at roughly 6 a.m. Sunday, according to David Concannon, an adviser to OceanGate.
OceanGate Expeditions , “We are exploring and mobilizing all options to bring the crew back safely.
Our entire focus is on the crewmembers in the submersible and their families. We are deeply thankful for the extensive assistance we have received from several government
agencies and deep sea companies in our efforts to reestablish contact with the submersible.
We are working toward the safe return of the crewmembers.”
