Five people who went on a submarine-like vehicle to see the Titanic are now considered lost at sea. The people went missing on June 18 on the coast of Newfoundland. They were in a submersible, which is like a submarine but smaller and controlled remotely. Countries from around the world sent supplies and boats to help with the search.
On a Thursday afternoon, the United States announced that they found debris from the submersible. The missing people and vessel have brought the world’s attention for days, and many people have wondered what went wrong with the vessel.
Since 2021 the submersible named Titan has been taking people down to look at the shipwreck of the Titanic. The company Oceangate Expeditions has organized the trips. An hour and thirty minutes after going into the water, the ship lost contact with its support vessel. It was 700 kilometers away from Newfoundland at the time.
Attempts to rescue them have been made since Monday, June, 19. Oceangate Expeditions has estimated that the passengers have about 96 hours of oxygen left to breathe. Governments around the world have given aircraft, ships, and underwater equipment to help with the search.
