The Joint Rescue Coordination Centre in Halifax, Nova Scotia said the vessel was reported overdue around 9:13 p.m. Sunday, about 435 miles (700 kilometres) south of St. John’s, Newfoundland. Lt. Cmdr. Len Hickey said a Canadian Coast Guard vessel and military aircraft were assisting the search effort, which was being led by the U.S. Coast Guard in Boston.

so sad this is happening, I was missing you JB, sad I see you on this occasion, I do not stay up to date with most news stories cause they are just so heartbreaking. this is too. Hope all of you are fine. Also hope the people will be found …
Could something have hit or rammed the submersible ?
Best of luck for all involved…..but something doesn't sit right with me…. where's the sonar …. satalite image…..come on in 2023 we still can't find object in deep water ?
Does anybody have a map with the locations of the Titanic, the drop off of the submersible and the last known depth and location??
This should of never been a thing. Its too dangerous for random tourists. I bet you that sub exploded under pressure. It was lost the first time. Years back one got stuck in between the hull of the titanic. Thats 6k lb pressure per sq in at depths like that. Theres currents under water that we cant see from the surface. The ocean is its own entity. I live beachside in florida and see it every day. I love it. But you wouldnt catch me in the middle of the ocean, no less diving that far down. Even if this sub didn't explode….i know myself, I would of hyperventilated the emergency oxygen within an hour.
If there was a implosion would there be any evidence of that?? Any idea on the size of the pieces left in that scenario??
That must be the oxygen tank outside the sub cabin?
if you can afford 250K USD for an excursion. Must be nice, Fuel prices, Food prices, Cost of living way up due to Climate change and Gov Deficit spending Trillions Taxpayers money. Elite get wealthier, those fortunate enough to to venture 12,000 feet below sea level while majority starve. Here we are, complete focus on 6 individuals who gambled on their lives for their own self centred entertainment. People are murdered all around the world daily, children die by the thousands because they cant eat.m, or are trafficked but, this is the focus of the World right now.
Thanks for all you’re doing to bring this news to us. This is horrific! I hope they can be found and saved, but their air will be running out so fast by now since they’re probably panicked inside and using the air faster than if breathing calmly. My heart goes out to them. 💔💔💔
I thought Titanic was a "registered graveyard" and therefore not to be dived on after Woods Hole Oceanolgraphic Doc Ballards expedition years ago.
What is the deal? Why is there interest?
Cringe
Heard a news report that the Titan Submersible was able to surface in 12 to 24 hours regardless of passengers being conscience so if its functioning property it should be at the surface. Dr. Michael Guillen got stuck in the Titanic propeller in the year 2000 when a strong current pulled them into the ship, so its possible they are stuck but logistics on bringing it up would be difficult I read a Navy Submarine can't go as low as a submersible. Navy sub can only go about 2,400 feet before entering the danger zone. If they are at the Titanic surface, they are 12,000 to 13,000 feet and bringing them up would be complex. A lot of variables I heard of talking on the news if there was a fire on board or entanglement. Each hour that goes by looks like a bleak outcome. Prayers,
It would be not good if they lost all power but surfaced and is unable to communicate, they should have painted it in orange glow paint and had a way to send morse code.
I don’t think it even made it to the bottom of the ocean. They’ve reported that it lost contact only almost 2 hours in. I bet something mechanical failed and it imploded.
They had coms on original dive in 1987. Alvin was at her with coms to surface.
Just imagine how uncomfortable they must be its now more then 3 days lost at the bottom they are in sitting position cant stand or move around and that is what can set panic as well claustrophobia is a real thing even for ones that don't have it in small periods of time…i hope to god they are found…i wonder if they're any atheists on board if this doesn't have them come to a reality check and find you need a higher power no wife or kids or alien can help you when you need reassurance at this moment.
Good morning
Billionaires are not ordinary folks.
What do they do if they are found them? Watch them die?
Can't imagine being bolted in……..never disturb the dead…….as in the Titanic. Sometimes you can have too much money and always looking for the next thrill. Who would go down several miles in something that is operated by a video game controller???? No backup communication. You would think the billionaire would have more brains than to get involved with this type of operation. Lots of money at stake. Be careful what you wish for.
Omg
They painted this submersible white? Half the ocean is white on a windy day. Why not neon orange or bright red? Also, many ways to surface but no way to open the hatch? Even the NASA capsules had a way to blow the hatch if lost at sea.
He screwed up his life and blames wife for his troubles. He is a bully, seems like always has been. He is a living monster, right Chad?
Karma is waiting for you son, may you rot
Maybe a whale ate it? 😳
Ironic. A bunch of rich people going to see where a bunch of rich people died….who may now, also, die.
Takes 2 hours to get down, 1:45 minutes in…lost communication.
This guy. Master of the word salad. He will keep this going…..without saying anything. And call it coverage.
You wonder about sabotage
This is not breaking news, it is old news. You'd think the fake news people would start blameing Trump. Those people are deceased and couldn't be recovered except for one scenario and that would be all would have to be LGBT+ affilated with the DNC.
Now It's Disappeared⁉⁉Okay This Is Just A Story I See It Now, There Is Nothing Can Rescue Them At 13,000 Feet Period!
▶16:00 ▶17:33 Indeed, the 5 Man Submersible's communication equipment could have malfunctioned, but their's one factor that is (mysteriously) being overlooked/not talked about/obfuscated, and that is: (❓)
WHY (❔) isn't the Submersible's GPS / HOMING-BEACON * able to be detected❔ (* These things are like Black Boxes for airplanes in that they are designed to withstand serious damage ~&~ exist on all contemporary, Hi-tech vessels; so that Emergency-Rescue & can successfully navigate & locate the vessel in distress)
( ❓) So the question that should be asked by every commentator reporting on this emergency situation is:
a) Did this Hi-tech Submersible indeed have a (confirmed) fully functioning* Emergency Locator Beacon [ELB] before in made it's dive ~&~
b) What are the results revealing as to where exactly the vessel is (❔) **
(* And if not, WHY?)
(** And if the results of the ELB reading are incorrect or N/A: WHY?)
(*** suffice to say; something smells a bit fishy🐟🐠if the News isn't asking these pertinent questions)
(Pt. 2) ▶25:20 OK 1/2 way through the stream, someone finally brought up the Fact that _All Vessels, esp. Hi end ones like this clearly is, have ELB/Trackers on them.*
(* But it wasn't the G0v., Coast Guard or even the 'Media Brief' or Reporters who brought it up; it was just some random viewer's 🐦Tweet!🐦 That's our Tax 💲💲hard at work there)
Sooooo many rude comments on here ,I'm not shocked, this day and age ,some human beings are just heartless 😢if it were you or a family member or a good friend, I'm sure u would not be so Damm RUTHLESS!!! AND NO COMPASSION ,WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO COMMON courtesy? Shame on u rude heartless human beings!😢 u should be ashamed of yourself 's ,seriously, if my family member was down there or I was down there ,it wouldn't be good ,I have PTSD and major panic attacks, like they say ,IF u don't have anything nice to say ,then say nothing! Prayers for everyone down there and all the friends and family member 's …
Hey JB is it possible the heating/air failed and carbon monoxide got into the capsule.
