"Debris Field" Discovered in Search for Missing Titanic Submersible

A "debris field" has been discovered by a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) while searching for a sub that went missing while carrying five people to the wreckage of the Titanic. The US Coast Guard is evaluating the discovery, and search planes and ships have been deployed to the northern Atlantic Ocean in the hopes of finding the lost 21-foot sub Titan. The sub launched into the Atlantic from a Canadian research vessel on Sunday morning, and the vessel lost contact with the Titan an hour and 45 minutes into the dive.
