A remotely operated vehicle (ROV) was being loaded on to a C-17 plane at Jersey Airport in Jersey, in the Channel Islands, in the search for a tourist submersible that went missing on a dive to the Titanic wreck, June 22, 2023.
UK company Magellan's sub, called Juliet, has previously scanned the wreck, producing a 3D image of the ship.
Local media reported that once the plane leaves the airport, it will take 48 hours to get to the site. It reportedly had been ready to be deployed earlier in the week but has been held up by permissions.
The U.S. Coast Guard says a debris field has been found near the Titanic as rescuers search for a missing submersible en route to the ship's wreckage. The Coast Guard put the statement on Twitter on Thursday.
The search for the Titan has passed the critical 96-hour mark when breathable air could have run out. The Titan submersible was estimated to have about a four-day supply of breathable air when it launched Sunday morning in the North Atlantic. But experts have emphasized that was an approximation and could be extended if passengers have taken measures to conserve breathable air. (Reuters/AP)
