Elon Musk has broken his silence on reports that the firm behind Titan's submersible used Starlink. In response to an updated fact-checking article, Musk tweeted: "You can't even run a good psy op." Weeks before the dive, the company tweeted that SpaceX's Starlink was being used for dive operations. "Despite being in the middle of the North Atlantic, we have the internet connection we need to make our #Titanic dive operations a success - thank you @Starlink!" In response to the article, Musk tweeted: "You can't even run a good psy op."

We fell for an hour, the views out of our observation ports fading slowly to pitch darkness. It was my first submersible dive, in 1993. Now it was the expedition’s last dive after days of frustration caused by bad weather and struggles to find what the scientists were hunting for. My experience also illuminates the risks that the passengers of the Titan submersible ran when they decided to dive on the resting place of the Titanic. But so far they had struck out because of poor weather and equipment difficulties.

Lochridge worked as an independent contractor for OceanGate in 2015, then as an employee between 2016 and 2018, according to court filings. Court filings from the company indicate there was additional testing after Lochridge’s time at OceanGate, and it’s unclear whether any of his concerns were addressed as the vessel was developed. He said more concerns were raised by contractors and employees during his time at OceanGate, and Rush became defensive and shied away from answering questions during all-staff meetings. In 2022, the legal representative updated the Virginia court on OceanGate’s expeditions in another court filing. “OceanGate decided to cancel the second mission for repairs and operational enhancements” after the vessel “sustained modest damage to its external components,” it reads.

Search and rescue operations continue by US Coast Guard in Boston after a tourist submarine bound for the Titanic's wreckage site went missing off the southeastern coast of Canada. A Canadian military surveillance aircraft detected underwater noises as a massive search continued early Wednesday in a remote part of the North Atlantic for a submersible that vanished while taking five people down to the wreck of the Titanic. The Coast Guard wrote on Twitter that a Canadian P-3 Orion had "detected underwater noises in the search area." "The data from the P-3 aircraft has been shared with our U.S. Navy experts for further analysis which will be considered in future search plans," the Coast Guard said. However, no official has publicly suggested that's the case and noises underwater can come from a variety of sources.

The banging on Tuesday first came every 30 minutes and was heard again four hours later, according to an internal government memo update on the search. The search for the missing submersible Titan has broadened to an area about two times the size of Connecticut. It was unclear when exactly the banging was heard Tuesday or how long it lasted, based on the memo. We have to keep working until we find the submersible,” Joyce Murray, minister of Fisheries, Oceans and the Canadian Coast Guard, told reporters Wednesday. If the submersible is intact, the passengers would be dealing with dwindling oxygen levels and fighting cold, he told CNN.

A submersible, such as the missing Titan vessel, is a type of watercraft — but it has some key differences from the better-known submarine. Unlike submarines, a submersible needs a mother ship to launch it. The Titan's support ship was the Polar Prince, a former Canadian Coast Guard icebreaking ship, according to the ship's co-owner Horizon Maritime. A submarine can also stay underwater much longer, while submersibles have much fewer power reserves, according to OceanGate, the company operating the Titan expedition, in a webpage seen by CNN that is no longer available. The Titan has 96 hours of life support, and its dives down to the Titanic wreckage usually last 10 to 11 hours, according to the site — compared to submarines that can stay underwater for months.

Now, a massive hunt is on to find the submersible before its passengers run out of oxygen. And yet, while the migrant story is far from being ignored, it’s not receiving the same breathless moment-by-moment updates accorded the lost Titanic hunters. (Who among us plebs had even heard the word “submersible” used as a noun before this incident?) The parallels to the Titanic, itself a story that still engenders widespread fascination more than a century after its sinking, add another layer of interest. But this is not a parable; it’s five human beings and many more working around the clock to save their lives.

The British billionaire and chairman of aviation consultancy Action Aviation is among those missing, according to his stepson.
