As of Tuesday afternoon, international rescue crews are still searching the North Atlantic for a submersible vessel that was taking five people to view the wreckage from the Titanic.
Authorities estimate there's only enough oxygen in the sub for those onboard to survive less than two days.
Here's what we know.
When and where did the vessel go missing?
The 21-foot vessel, which is named Titan, lost communication with its control center on Sunday morning, roughly 1 hour and 45 minutes into its scheduled dive, the U.S. Coast Guard wrote on Twitter.
Titan had been deployed by a Canadian expedition ship, the Polar Prince, about 435 miles (380 nautical of St. John's in Newfoundland, not far from the site of the iconic shipwreck.
