A new submarine that carries tourists to see the Titanic failed to return to the surface and its mother ship and cannot be reached.

No further details yet.

Oh my gosh! I hope and pray they are found soon and they are safe.

The submersible carries five people and can go down 13,210 feet. This was its third trip.

It actually went missing last night but reporting is just starting now.

I know rescue missions are underway. This seems ominous. I hope they are found safe soon.

OMG  my claustrophobia just kicked in. I can imagine the panicky response of those onboard. I hope and pray it is just a mechanical or communications failure and all will be safe.

UK aviation billionaire Hamish Harding is reported to be on board.

I would never have been able to go underwater. I hope all is well.

OceanGate Expeditions, the company that runs this expedition made their website inaccessible. I just tried to check them out but it's down.

This sure is an extremely dangerous way to vacation. 

There has never been a successful rescue at that depth.

heard that  the fare costs abt  $250,000 each  to have a seat on the sub .

I hope the rescue mission is successful.  I cannot imagine the amount of panic and claustrophobia the people are experiencing.
