It took 5 research submersible dives over 8 days to find the Titanic. And it’s massive. Not to mention that this tiny submersible has likely exhausted its air supply already, well… there’s no rush.

It has a 4 day emergency air supply, so they still have 3 days to find it

The sub has a 96-hour sustainment capability if there's an emergency aboard, Mauger said. As of Monday afternoon, he said there was believed to be "somewhere between 70 to the full 96 hours available at this point."

seems you're right

Wow this is horrifying, can’t even imagine. I also can’t imagine the survivability of such a small vessel means there is any chance of them being alive. Horrible

And imagining its size and depth will be both hard to find and resurface.
