the search has entered a new stage of urgency as the us coastguard says the vessel probably has enough oxygen to last until thursday morning local time. the us coastguard also confirmed that more tapping noises were picked up by a canadian team overnight, but locating its source is extremely difficult. the submersible was on its way to visit the site of the titanic wreck, which lies some 12,500 feet underneath the ocean's surface. the international rescue operation for the sub is being coordinated in boston. with pressure growing to rescue those onboard, there are now dozens of vessels scanning thousands of miles of ocean for any signs of the sub. soon joining the efforts is french research ship the atalante. it has equipment for searching the extreme depths. we'll be looking in more detail at the technical challenges involved. with us to discuss all of this is our correspondent carl nasman in boston. thank you so much forjoining the programme so what is the latest on the search effort? figs latest on the search effort? as ou latest on the search effort? sis you mentioned, latest on the

if you are joining us coastguard joining us. the us coastguard says— joining us.king about the safety i don't safety of the missions, i don't think if think it's very dangerous. if you look at submersible activity over three decades, over the last three decades, there been a major there hasn't even been a major injury, let alone a fatality . injury, let alone a fatality. what is not once , what worries us is not once, it's not when you're under the water. what worries me is about getting there when you're on the ship in icy states with big doors that can crush your hands and not have had and people who may not have had the down the best balance, who fall down and heads. so it does and bang their heads. so it does seem what him most seem that what worried him most was in terms of when the titan gets to the bottom of the ocean is getting entangled in the wreckage and being unable to make its way back to the surface. but that that expert there sort of speculating that it could be potential a problem with the strength of the hull, the integrity of the hull. this is it

the us coastguard said earlier that the vessel may have less than a day and a half of breathable air left. the operation to find the missing tourist submersible is now expanding to include more resources with expertise in deep sea rescuing. we've also learned today from the new york times that in 2018, submersible experts expressed concern to oceangate ceo stockton rush, who is on the titan. the authors of the letter expressed "unanimous concern" over the approach taken by oceangate when building the titan, and warned of potential "catastrophic" issues with its design. the marine technology society wrote to rush: i spoke to my colleague carl nasman on the scene in boston in the last hour. you have been following the latest developments, has the coastguard given any indications on signs of the location of the submersible? well, they are looking for this vessel in a specific area but i have to say this is a fairly broad area, about the size of connecticut. this is 900 miles off the shore of cape cod, so just out towards the ocean from where we are in boston. this is a wide area that is

the us coastguard has launched a search and rescue operation, after a sub—mersible used to take tourists wreck of the titanic went missing in the atlantic ocean. the vessel — with five people on board — lost contact about one hour and 45 minutes into a dive to the wreck. the titanic, which sank in 1912, lies nearly 4,000 metres beneath the surface, around 600 kilometres off the coast of newfoundland in canada.from boston , our correspondent jessica parker reports. designed to plunge the depths of the ocean, this is the titan submersible, now missing in the north atlantic after contact with the vessel was lost. it sparked a frantic but complicated search. 0n the bottom, particularly very deep, it's going to be difficult to rescue it. none of the conventional submarine rescue methods, which are designed mainly for naval submarines, would be able to operate down at the depth of the titanic. even if it could get down there, the hatches would not make onto submersible. a ship carrying the sub left newfoundland and arrived at the wreck site on sunday, where it then began itsjourney towards the

the sunday they heard a noise that was consistent with an implosion and they passed it on to the us coastguards that it still carried out that large search and rescue operation we saw because the data wasn't definitive. and just to add, we understand there's also going to be an investigation involving the national transportation safety board and the us coast guard. also, vessels are going to start returning from the atlantic here into saintjohn�*s, and that includes the polar prince. and that includes the polar prince. some vessels will, however, remain because they're involved in the recovery operation. the us coast guard has already said that they the chances of retrieving the us coast guard has already said that they... the chances of retrieving the bodies of the five men is pretty impossible in the ocean. but they do want to keep investigating and finding out what happened in order to bring some closure to the families. the head of the wagner mercenary group, yevgeny prigozhin, says russia had no reason to invade ukraine, and that the claim that nato posed a threat was "a beautiful story".

believe that submersible, the titan is located in this were the us is calling the unified command they're bringing together between the coastguardan important point that the us coast guard simply doesn't have the knowledge or the equipment to carry out the search and rescue mission and that is piercing such an international effort bringing in various countries in the equipment on the way from france, we are from canada and the us as well, in addition, commercial agencies and vessels on the scene as well and that's because this is such a difficult operation at a very far away from the coastline in such a deep site as well and this is going to be all hands on deck is here during the press conference, this really is a full court press, how they are describing it. everything ou have they are describing it. everything you have outlined _ they are describing it. everything you have outlined suggested - they are describing it. everything i you have outlined suggested takes time, the logistics falling into place for this search and rescue to really get under way. and yet, at the same time, we are told they're just a0 hours left of breat

coastguard? the word from the us coast guard this _ the coastguard? rd? the word from the us coast guard this morning, which - the coastguard? the word from the us coast guard this morning, which is - coast guard this morning, which is coordinating the rescue operation, is that this is still an active search and rescue mission. hope has not been lost and every effort is being made to locate the submersible and if possible to enact some sort of rescue. there are more and more assets and vehicles and deep sea diving equipment that is arriving on the scene and we know that to remotely operated submersible have gone into the water, one from a canadian ship and one from a french ship, a remotely operated submersible which is capable of operating down at depths of 6000 metres. so way lower than the wreck of the titanic. those submersibles are going down to the sea bed to try to find any trace of what happened to find any trace of what happened to the titan submersible and the five men who went down in that submarine on sunday. everyone is aware that the esti

the us coastguard says the vessel's oxygen supply may run out in hours.e underwater noises have been heard in the search, but it remains unclear what they are. the submersible was on its way to the site of the titanic wreck, which lies some 12,500 feet under the surface. the international rescue operation is being coordinated in boston. ships and planes are scanning thousands of square miles of ocean for any signs of the sub. from newfoundland, our north america correspondent nomia iqbal sent this report. everything possible is being used to try and find the missing submersible. these are the first images of the complicated international hunt unfolding in the atlantic ocean, more than 400 miles from the coast. it's now entered its most critical day. the sub, which is the size of a minivan, needs to be found before oxygen runs out for the men on board. but there is some hope — more noises have been heard. when you're in the middle of a search and rescue case, you always have hope. that's why we're doing what we do. with respect to the noises specifically,

us coastguard say the submersible�*s landing frame and a rear cover were found in the debris.sthjune a short time after starting its descent to the wreck of the titanic on the sea bed. 0ur science correspondent jonathan amos has more details. a sombre moment at quayside as the debris from the titan submersible was unloaded. ship workers attempted to cover the fragments but some pieces were still clearly identifiable. a titanium end cap from the cylinder—shaped carbon fibre sub with a large hole where a viewing window was once positioned. the rear equipment bay thrown clear in the violent implosion that occurred nearly four kilometres down. and the landing frame the sub used to sit on a flat surface. the question now is whether investigators have enough material to reconstruct what happened. the key parts to look at our the interface between the acrylic window and the titanium hemispherical dome is, the end caps, and also the area where the carbon fibre would have been bonded to the titanium flanges. i can see from the footage that both of those components were recovered, which

the sunday they heard a noise that was consistent with an implosion and they passed it on to the us coastguardus coast guard. also, vessels are going to start returning from the atlantic here into saintjohn's, and that includes the polar prince. some vessels will, however, remain because they're involved in the recovery operation. the us coast guard has already said that they... the chances of retrieving the bodies of the five men is pretty impossible in the ocean. but they do want to keep investigating and finding out what happened in order to bring some closure to the families. around the world and across the uk. this is bbc news. nara is showing me a laminated photo of her then two—year—old son from a set she had when she was on an isolation ward in bristol during her treatment 30 years ago. i was consciously aware that, if i died, he wouldn't remember me and i didn't want that. despite chemotherapy, nara's cancer came back aggressively and she says she was the first patient with hodgkin's lymphoma to be offered a stem cell transplant in bristol. i knew that it was very serious at that poin

definitely an international effort, it's all being organised from right here in boston with the us coastguards of different agencies because quite simply the coastguard has admitted it didn't have the expertise or the equipment to carry out this type of search and rescue effort so they are bringing in canadian officials, us navy equipment and personnel, and there is also some private vessels that happened to be in the area or volunteered their services which are being looked into this effort as well. there's also a french vessel that is on its way, that should arrive around tomorrow afternoon local time and that will be manned with another one of these underwater grounds that can aid in the search. we are witnessing a very widespread effort to bring in different types of partners, we know that three american planes havejust recently arrived in canada bringing more supplies and more personnel and canada also has some ships arriving with medical equipment. a written pressure chamberfor medical equipment. a written pressure chamber for example. —— recompression. find pressure chamber for example.
