According to reports, banging sounds were detected near the site where the missing Titanic submarine sunk. The bangs, picked up by a Canadian plane passing through the surrounding area, were heard at 30-minute intervals.

The submarine, called Titan, went missing on June 18 after the vessel lost communication with the tour operators 435 miles south of St John's, Newfoundland. This news comes after it was announced on June 20 that the five passengers stuck on board the vessel only had approximately just over 40 hours of oxygen left.

The five passengers on board include Shahzada Dawood, his son, Suleman, French submersible pilot Paul-Henry Nargeolet, OceanGate's CEO, Stockton Rush, and British billionaire Hamish Harding. Friends and family of the trapped passengers have been sick with worry and have been hoping for good news.

Prior to identifying the signals from the site, a retired Navy rear admiral by the name of Chris Parry had warned that locating the submarine would be near impossible if not for an emitting signal. According to Parry:

"I'm afraid the odds are vanishingly small. Obviously, we want to remain hopeful and optimistic, but there are two problems here - one is actually finding the thing, and secondly is how on earth are you going to get it off the seabed. It's never been done before, and I don't think anybody's got any ideas about how to do it at the moment."

Although Time Is Running Out, There Is Cause for Hope

With the news of the sound signals detected at the sinking site, rescuers have been filled with a new sense of hope that there is now an increased chance of survival for the passengers. Though the exact whereabouts of the vessel remain unclear, the developments in the rescue mission prove that signs of life are likely. As reported by the President of the Explorers Club, Richard Garriott de Cayeux:

"We have much greater confidence that: 1) There is cause for hope, based on data from the field - we understand that likely signs of life have been detected at the site."

Despite time still running out, the rescuers have confirmed that they understand the complete picture of how to go about deploying the experienced personnel as well as equipment for the rescue. Additionally, the rescue team has direct lines of communication with the highest levels of The Coast Guard, Congress, The White House, The Navy, and the Air Force.

Family, friends, rescuers, and experts continue to be hopeful for good news to arrive soon.

Full-scale efforts continue to be made in the wake of the catastrophe, and all involved remain hopeful for a successful recovery and safe return of the trapped passengers. The Explorers Club also continues to push for approval of the Magellan ROVs to be deployed at the site for assistance that de Cayeux believes to be invaluable in the mission.

The developments bring some level of solace to anxious and stressed individuals connected to the passengers trapped on the Titan. Family, friends, rescuers, and experts continue to be hopeful for good news to arrive soon.
