TL;DR Summary

The captain of a submersible that went missing while searching for the wreckage of the Titanic is the grandson of Ralph K. Davies, a prominent San Franciscan for whom Davies Symphony Hall is named. Stockton Rush Jr. founded OceanGate Expeditions Inc. and led expeditions to the Titanic in 2021. The current underwater voyage brought five people aboard the Titan, a submersible with a depth range of 4,000 meters. Rescue teams have frantically searched for the lost submersible since Sunday night, and on Wednesday, a Canadian aircraft detected underwater noises in the area where the submersible disappeared.
