We’re still waiting for the press conference to begin, as it approaches midnight in Thailand.
There are unconfirmed reports circulating that the authorities may begin the rescue mission tonight due to fears that forecast torrential rains would further endanger the trapped football team. Efforts today to find appropriate locations to drill a shaft down to the stranded footballers were unsuccessful, meaning that the only viable option out is via the tunnels. Elsewhere, Elon Musk announced he is in contact with the Thai authorities and has sent a team of engineers from The Boring Company, who will accompany SpaceX employees to aid the rescue effort in Tham Luang. If the boys successfully make it out in time, the FIFA President has invited them to be guests at the World Cup final in Moscow. What a story that would be.
