Officials provided an update as Canadian and U.S. crews continue the search for a submersible that has gone missing in the northern Atlantic Ocean during an underwater tourist expedition to view the site of the Titanic shipwreck.

A Canadian aircraft detected underwater noises Wednesday that offered a glimmer of hope for those lost aboard OceanGate Expeditions’ Titan, as estimates suggest as little as a day’s worth of oxygen could be left if the vessel is still functioning.

U.S. Coast Guard Capt. Jamie Frederick said they “don’t know what the noise is,” adding that they are “searching in the area where the noises were detected,” but analysis by experts in the U.S. Navy on what the noise might be, has come back as “inconclusive” thus far.

Carl Hartsfield, the director at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, said "the noises have been described as banging noises,” adding that it’s “analysis over time” that will allow them to figure out what the noise actually is.

Aboard the vessel is pilot Stockton Rush, the CEO of the company leading the expedition. His passengers are a British adventurer, two members of a Pakistani business family and a Titanic expert.
