from the coast guard at a briefing set for 3:00 eastern time. meanwhile, we are learning that canada is stepping up its rescue efforts sending in a ship, the hmcs glace bay, equipped with a hyperbaric recompression, and we will be joined in just moments. sandra: molly line outside the u.s. headquarters in boston. first get to mike tobin, live at the staging area for the search in st. john s, canada. mike, exactly what we know, officials are reporting the remote operated robot discovered this debris field near the titanic and they are saying it could be linked to the missing titan but cannot confirm that to be the case. what else are we learning? well, we have learned that certainly very discouraging news for the people who are holding out hope for a miracle in this case. i spoke with larry david who is larry daily, i should say, logistics specialist for titanic expeditions, he was down to the wreckage in 2003, and 1 of the things he points out is when you go down to the
