The world knows the stories of the Titanic ship, but the Titanic submarine, which went to know the secret of the wreckage of the same Titanic , has now become a mystery itself. What is the reason for the disappearance of the submarine, it has not been known till now. But the rescue team has intensified the search operation of the submarine. To solve the mystery of Titanic's wreck, a 2.02 crore campaign was started. Rich people of the world were involved in this. But that campaign got a setback when the news of the missing of that submarine came.
According to the United States Coast Guard, the submarine lost contact within about two hours. Titan has less than 70 hours of oxygen left. The Titan submarine carried five passengers. British billionaire Hamish Harding and French Titanic expert PN Narjolet are among the five missing passengers. According to the information, it takes eight days to reach the wreckage of Titanic and it costs Rs 2.02 crore. But now the relief campaign is again facing huge expenditure.
What is a titan submarine?
Titan is a research and survey submersible in which five people can sit. These include a pilot and crew, who may be archaeologists or marine biologists. But apart from these, those tourists can also go in it who can afford a seat.
In addition to site surveys and inspections, Titan carries out research and data collection. It can go to a depth of 13,123 feet for testing in the sea. Through this, ships are deployed to search the sea. It is made of carbon fiber and its length is 22 feet. Weight around 10,432 kg. It uses four electric thrusters to move around. This submarine has 96 hours of bottled oxygen.
British billionaire Hamish Harding, who was aboard the submarine, wrote in a post on social media that this year's journey is going to be difficult due to bad weather.
Operation continues to save the submarine
According to Oceangate, a massive campaign is being conducted to search for the missing people. The Boston Coast Guard is leading the rescue. The US Coast Guard has dispatched two C-130 Hercules aircraft to search for the submersible on the surface of the water.
According to Oceangate, the submarine had reached the wreckage of the Titanic ship. This has come to be known from his last message. Because the Titan submarine was sending its position message every 15 minutes.
Not easy to detect submarine
Rear Admiral John Mauger of the US Coast Guard has said that it is not easy to find Titan. Because it seems to be stuck in a very remote area. Finding it is a challenge. Whatever the rescue team has done so far, they have done on their own.
Where is the missing titan?
Titan was located 700 kilometers south of St. John's, Newfoundland in Canada. The Polar Prince was supposed to take the search vessel Titan to the wreck site. But only after about 1.45 minutes of starting, the contact of the submarine was lost. The missing submarine was last found about 1,450 km off the coast of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, USA.
At the moment it is difficult to say whether Titan is detected or not. Experts are expressing apprehension that the submarine might have been trapped in the debris.
Where in the sea is the wreckage of Titanic?
The wreckage of the Titanic is estimated to be about 400 nautical miles – 740 km south of St John's, Newfoundland. Two large pieces are said to be in the debris. Efforts to reach there have not been successful so far.
When did Titanic sink?
Four days after its voyage, at midnight on April 14, 1912, the ship collided with an iceberg off the coast of Canada. Of the 2,200 passengers, 1,500 died when the ship sank.
