Clock Ticks On Race To Find Titanic Sub As The Exact Time Missing Vessel Will Run Out Of Oxygen Is Coming

Since Sunday, June 18, 2023, crews have been desperately searching for any sign of the missing Titan submersible. The underwater vehicle, which currently has 5 people onboard, lost contact with its mother ship only an hour and 45 minutes into its dive, and teams have been attempting to locate it ever since.

It is predicted that the vessel will run out of oxygen sometime today around 10:00 GMT. And as the clock ticks on, the whole world watches anxiously in hopes that these people may still be rescued.

After banging sounds were reported to have been detected by a Canadian aircraft on Wednesday, there seemed to be a glimmer of hope. But unfortunately, there have been no answers as to the location of the submersible just yet.
