Wreckage parts found The search for the submarine is still ongoing. The wreckage was found on the seabed, around 500 meters from the bow of the Titanic, writes CNN. Wreckage has been found in the search area south of the coast of Newfoundland. The remains were found by an unmanned mini-submarine near where the Titanic went down in 1912. The US Coast Guard will now examine the wreckage. Earlier today, the coast guard said that the rescue work is in full swing. A French remote-controlled underwater vessel was used in the search. It is a mini-submarine that can go down to a depth of 6,000 metres. A Canadian mini-submarine searches the seabed. But the search area is huge and the submarine is only 6.7 meters long. In addition, there are a number of rescue vessels in the area. Satellite images of the rescue operation.

If the submarine is on the seabed, it will be pitch dark and very cold, and there is rather a lot of food and drink. If the submarine is found, it will be very difficult to get it up. The pressure at a depth of 4,000 meters is around 400 times as high as at the surface, and the load on the submarine and the equipment that may have to be used to retrieve it to the surface is therefore enormous. The submarine Titan has been missing since Sunday. On board were a guide and three passengers who each paid NOK 2.7 million for the trip down to the iconic Titanic wreck.
