  1. There are several countries and many experts involved in working on this rescue. Unless you're privy to every vessel each coast guard and navy possesses, you never know... Still hoping for a rescue.

  2.  @plojoeright817  well, Apollo 13's crew seemed to be doomed, too. But they got back to earth against all odds.

  3. Yes, and James Cameron went down to the remains before the movie Titanic was released.

  4.  @thomasdaniels6824  how is a 30 min interval "wishful"? It's math. And it's a potential sign of life.

  5.  @rikk319  I'm aware of the Apollo 13 situation. I'm merely giving an example of something that most people gave up on....and the astronauts came back, alive. I'm hoping that all the countries experts involved, working closely together, may think of something you and I aren't aware of..

  6. When you're a mom you understand how moms worry. Hoping they beat all odds and are found and rescued somehow..

  9.  @ruthshelton-tp9ie  it's possible. But it's still possible it got caught on something, and never descended completely.. Not giving up hope yet. They still have enough oxygen by experts' estimates.

  10.  @ruthshelton-tp9ie  yes. Especially since they were at 30 min intervals..

  13.  @biancamichelle11  I agree with your feelings about billionaires but they are still human beings with families who aren't sleeping, worried sick. And there's a teenager down there.

  14.  @chefbrittan84  it's a really bad time. Smh.

  15.  @rikk319  I'm going by what a navy officer said. So I think he may understand the topography. And yeah, it's about 40 degrees, maybe even less. That cold can be advantageous sometimes. Feel free to give up. I'm not giving up hope yet.
