They locate it via it's sonar ping. When in close proximity they can even send extremely low bitrate mesages. However, they can't detect it. It probably lost power, or has been crushed due to depressurisation.
I've heard it is navigated with instructions from the support vessel, but also that there's no tether. How it would communicate is a mystery.
Also heard it has a distress buoy, but there's been no sign of it.
It could have surfaced and just hasn't been found or it could be stuck on the bottom. Maybe has no power. Nobody seems to know anything.
96 hours is the extent of their air starting at 4am Sunday. Might be able to stretch that. So that means wee hours Thursday they'll be dead if they aren't already.
RF signals can't penetrate water, so no there's no GPS under water.
Same with bluetooth
That I didn't know, good to know that. You'd think they'd have some kind of way to locate though.

sonar, lidar
It would have imploded and not exploded at that depth, so it should be found and in mostly one piece.
Hypotheticals
It'd be kind of weird to wait until the third mission to implode the Titanic-seeking sub, right?
Rich people on vacation go missing while attempting a stupid stunt. Just the news.
Yeah. I can't get excited about this. FAFO kinda thing.
The "news" is sure short on details.

They seem to be indicating it used Starlink satellites in some articles.
In others. They say it only had communication with the support vessel when directly underneath it.
My thoughts
one passenger is involved in King Chucks kids charity.
probably just a coincidence.
And another owns an aviation company specializing in Selling/leasing and renting Private Jets. Action Aviation is the company name
Air Lingus was taken.
I can’t get over the complete lack of secondary backups.
Communications backup? Tracking backup? Rescue vehicle backup?
That was my first thought? WTH? They have no way to find it, if it goes missing? Yea... Right...
There is something fishy about this
First question should be, who was on it. That will lead to why the sub went missing.
Theory: They were trying to go to one of their "places" outside of the law to commit a crime, got caught and/or taken out.
Could be that they know WH were on to them so they fake their death and get plastic surgery
They probably made it to wherever they were going. The "lost" story is just the cover.
