Searches are continuing for the missing Titanic expedition submersible that’s been missing since Sunday.
The US coastguard said there was a “five-person crew” on the 21-foot craft which lost contact with its base off the coast of Canada as it headed for the wreck 12,500ft below the North Atlantic.
Dr Steve Ross, the chief scientist of the 2022 Titanic survey expedition who has been on the "first of its kind" submersible, told Tech & Science Daily about the vessel itself and its capabilities.
Plus Steve Thorpe, the submarine escape capability manager at Survitec, tells the podcast just how difficult the search and rescue mission will be, and how important the conditions in the Atlantic will be.
