Mysterious Noises Emerge from Titanic Search Area.

Canadian authorities have detected more underwater noises in the area where rescuers are searching for a submersible that went missing in the North Atlantic while bringing five people down to the wreck of the Titanic. The exact location and source of the sounds have not yet been determined. The area of the North Atlantic where the Titan submersible went missing on Sunday is prone to fog and stormy conditions, making it an extremely challenging environment to conduct a search-and-rescue mission. The vessel is estimated to have as little as a day’s worth of oxygen left if it is still functioning.

Search for Missing Titanic Submersible Yields Underwater Noises.

The search for a missing submersible vessel near the Titanic wreck has been relocated after underwater noises were heard in the area. US Navy experts are now analyzing the sounds heard by Canadian P-3 plane using sonar buoys. Crews have been exploring the source of the noise in a remote part of the North Atlantic. There may be as little as a day's worth of oxygen left on the vessel if it remains intact. The five men on board include British businessman Hamish Harding, 58, British-Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood, 48, and his son Suleman, 18, French explorer Paul-Henry Nargeolet, 77, and Stockton Rush, 61.
