A submarine used to take people to see the wreck of the Titanic has disappeared in the Atlantic Ocean.
Five people remain missing after the submarine failed to emerge from the water on Sunday, June 18, 435 miles south of St John's in Newfoundland, on Canada's east coast. A British explorer is believed to be among the five people feared missing on board the submarine used to take tourists to view the wreck of the Titanic, which lies 2.4 miles down on the ocean floor.
Lieutenant Commander Len Hickey, of the Joint Rescue Coordination Centre in Halifax, Nova Scotia, said a Canadian Coast Guard vessel and military aircraft were assisting the search effort, led by the US Coast Guard in Boston.
