On Saturday morning signals have been detected that are thought to be from the missing Argentine submarine which got missing with 44 crew members, while returning to the base Ushuaia, near the southernmost tip of South America, to its base at Mar del Plata from its regular routine mission. The defense ministry is trying to detect the seven failed signals.Argentina has accepted an offer from US for a NASA P-3 explorer that has already stepped in the search for ARA San Juan submarine. The search operation is being complicated because of heavy winds and waves. President of Argentina Mauricio Macri tweeted on Saturday saying, “We will do what is necessary to find the submarine as soon as possible”.The vessel got disappeared 430KM away from the coast. Till now there is no clue about its whereabouts. It is thought that the submarine might have had a technical glitch because of the power cut as its one of the oldest submarine in Argentines fleet.
