As the 24-hour mark since the signal’s detection passes, the atmospheric conditions and the “silence” of the airwaves weigh heavily on the search teams. Every hour that passes without a secondary transmission increases the likelihood that the device has finally depleted its power source or has been moved beyond the reach of the local network. Yet, the momentum on the ground has not slowed. For the investigators, the signal proved that the case is not stagnant; it is a living, evolving puzzle that requires both high-tech intervention and old-fashioned boots-on-the-ground persistence.
