As US and Canadian rescuers are searching for the missing Oceangate sub that disappeared Monday morning while carrying a group of crew and tourists to see the sunken Titanic remains, one expert says it is unlikely that they will be found 'in time' as life-supporting oxygen is due to run out 6 am BST, Thursday.
Former Captain of a Navy salvage and rescue ship, Capt Sean P. Tortora, told the Mirror: "I can say any rescue at the depth would be highly unlikely."
Another expert, former Royal Navy Rear Admiral, Chris Parry, said that the vessel could have fallen foul of a “catastrophic failure” or even have become tangled up in the debris of the famed shipwreck. "It’s very concerning indeed,” he said.
