US Coast Guard officials announced a "debris field was discovered" by a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) near the Titanic wreckage site. Search and rescue teams have been scouring the ocean 900 nautical miles east of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, for the missing tourist submersible craft with five people for several days. Time is running out as the oxygen supply on the vessel may be depleted.&nbsp;

"It is estimated to have a 96-hour supply of oxygen, meaning the vessel could run out of air this morning," NBC News said.&nbsp;

"Experts within the unified command are evaluating the information," the Coast Guard said.

The Coast Guard will hold a press briefing to discuss findings at 3 pm est.&nbsp;
