A co-founder of OceanGate Expeditions gave a somewhat optimistic view about rescuing the five-man crew of the missing Titan submarine after it went incommunicado earlier this week amid concerns that the vessel will run out of oxygen.
In a statement posted on social media, OceanGate co-founder Guillermo Söhnlein, who left the firm in 2013, said that the public and media should remain hopeful for the crew’s rescue and avoid speculation about their fate. An international rescue effort has continued since the submarine was declared missing on Sunday evening and as the company said that there is a limited supply of oxygen on board.
