A submarine headed for the wreckage of the Titanic has gone missing about 400 miles off the coast of Newfoundland Island, Canada. The cost to board the minivan-sized vessel is $250,000 each with about five people on board. There have been three other successful voyages to see the Titanic wreckage. This one, however, does not appear to be the same. The vessel departed on Sunday and went missing shortly afterward. One of the men’s cell phones pinged just above the wreckage and there has been no communication since. As of Tuesday afternoon, there is still no sight of the vessel or any communication with it. There is estimated to be enough oxygen on board to last until Thursday morning at the latest.
