US, Canada coast guards search for submersible on Titanic wreckage

US and Canadian coast guard teams race on Monday, June 19, 2023, to locate a submersible vessel with five people aboard, including a billionaire tourist, that went missing on a dive to the Titanic's wreckage in the North Atlantic. The 21-foot (6.5-meter) craft, operated by OceanGate Expeditions, began its descent early Sunday and lost contact with the surface less than two hours later, according to authorities. The Titanic hit an iceberg and sank in 1912 during its maiden voyage from England to New York with 2,224 passengers and crew on board. More than 1,500 people died in the tragedy.
