Rescuers in a remote area of the Atlantic Ocean raced against time early Tuesday to find a missing submersible carrying five people on a mission to document the wreckage of the Titanic, the iconic ocean liner that sank more than a century ago.

The carbon-fiber submersible named the Titan, part of a mission by OceanGate Expeditions, carried a pilot, a renowned British adventurer, two members of an iconic Pakistani business family and another passenger.

2 more days to look for it, mission impossible?

It should be possible if the sea depth is 38m.
However Titanic resting site is 3800m below surface and water temp around or below 10 degC.
It is definitely impossible for the people in the small submersible with limited life support systems to survive 2 days.

Possibly the only pilot suddenly conked out, and the rest not familiar with the operation of the craft...
