VICEさんのインスタグラム写真 - (VICEInstagram)「Officials have reported “banging” sounds in 30-minute intervals coming from the missing Titanic submarine’s last known location in the Atlantic Ocean. This discovery was shared via internal emails sent to the Department of Homeland Security and reported by US media. What does this mean for the search? The submersible, the Polar Prince, went missing on the 18th June and the air supply is expected to run out on Thursday morning. The US Coast Guard (USCG) said it was searching an area of about 20,000 sq km, with US and Canadian agencies, commercial deep-sea firms and navies helping the rescue operation. The latest development has given rescuers some hope, though searches of the area have been unsuccessful so far. With a potential range of 12,500ft - nearly two-and-a-half miles - below the surface, and with possibly just two vessels on Earth capable of rescuing those on board, time is running out. In a press conference, Rear Admiral John Mauger, from the US Coast Guard, who is leading the search for the Titan submersible, has revealed they "don't know the source of that noise" but have reported the data with the US Navy. In addition, he said authorities will continue to find the source of the noise "as long as there's an opportunity for survival.”」6月22日 1時13分
