Hamish Harding attened an aviation awards ceremony on Januin Beverly Hills, California. “The sub had a successful launch and Hamish is currently diving,” the company said in an Instagram post on Sunday. “And so we anticipate that there’s somewhere between 70 to the full 96 hours available at this point.”Ī British businessman based in the United Arab Emirates, Hamish Harding, is one of the people on the submersible, according to a social media post by the company he owns, Action Aviation.

“In terms of the hours, we understood that that was 96 hours of rescue or emergency capability from the operator,” Mauger told reporters. In a tweet, the Coast Guard said the communication stopped approximately 1 hour, 45 minutes into the vessel’s dive. The Canadian research ship Polar Prince on Sunday notified the military branch it had lost contact with the underwater vessel, according to Coast Guard spokesperson Lt. “We’re working very closely at this point to make sure that we’re doing everything that we can do to locate the submersible and rescue those on board,” Mauger said. Hamish Harding, confirmed to be aboard the submerible, posted an image of the vessel to his social media accounts on Saturday, June 17. He referred reporters to the group conducting the expedition, OceanGate Expeditions, for information about what the term “mission specialist” entails. He didn’t identify the five and said authorities still were in the process of contacting family members. John Mauger, commander of the US Coast Guard’s First District, said Monday in a news conference. The five people on board the vessel, which was on an expedition to view the Titanic wreckage, comprised one pilot and four “mission specialists,” Rear Adm. The 21-foot vessel has four days of emergency capability, the leader of search and rescue efforts said Monday afternoon, as crews with the US and Canadian coast guards continued scouring the ocean’s surface about 900 miles east of Cape Cod and used sonar to listen for sounds far below the water, which is up to 13,000 feet deep in the area.

Officials are in a race against time to find a civilian submersible that had five people aboard after it went missing Sunday in the North Atlantic while voyaging to the wreckage of the Titanic.
