discouraging news for the people that have been hoping for a miracle as you mentioned, the oxygen supply had run out, got release from the coast guard this morning that a remote operated vehicle, rov off the canadian ship horizon atlantic had located a debris field. that was the ship that we got the announcement early this morning that put the rov down to the depth of the atlantic, and it had been searching around, as well as the rov off the french ship. so we are waiting on more details. we know indeed it was from the horizon atlantic ship. all of this in spite of optimism people close to horizon maritime who are close to families, the joint rescue command center and halifax announced a ship arrived with medical professionals who specialized in diving injuries. they were carrying on board decompression change bet chambers for people that would have decompression sickness for the amount of time down there. the search to the south of where i am now has indeed been very activ
stockton rush. i mean, if you really want to be safe, don t get out of bed, he said, this is what he told the washington post. don t get in your car, don t do anything. at some point you re going to take some risk and it really is a risk/reward question. just how much that ceo and sub captain loved the thrill seeking that he was doing and sharing with so many others. emily. mike, i note that the lawsuit you mentioned earlier which a couple sued oceangate for fraud, the allegations, it focused on them not receiving a refund for a trip just like this one they would have taken, that they never got money back that they paid for it. among reasons given for it being postponed included equipment failure. of course, that suit remains to play out and we hope there s no correlation with the situation here. however, it does raise questions. one i have for you, mike, what are you hearing boots on ground with naval
humor an origin, the ocean has a life of its own. it could be any other type of oceanic activities. odd the sound would come in 30 minute intervals, to just pause on the note of optimism, i was taken by some information being shared by the co-founder of oceangate earlier this morning, some of his comments he shared on facebook, this is the gentleman, guillermo soline, he started it in 2009 with stockton rush who is now missing. he posted today, quote, today will be a critical day in the search and rescue mission as the sub s life support supplies are starting to run low. i m certain stockton and the rest of the crew realized days ago the best thing to do to ensure their rescue is extend limits of those supplies by relaxing as much as possible. i firmly believe the time window available for their rescue is longer than what
