NASA called in to support 33 trapped Chilean minersCopiapo, Chile(CNN) August 27,2010
The 33 miners trapped inside a Chilean mine since August 5 have been told for the first time that they could be stuck underground for as long as four months, the head of the rescue operation said Friday.
But Andre Sougarret, the mines manager for the state mining company, and Chilean government representative Jimena Mastos also said they are working on a "Plan B," which could help speed up the rescue process.
