Time running out for crew of missing Titanic tourist submarine
Time and oxygen are both running out for the crew of an ill-fated expedition to the two-mile deep wreck of the Titanic, which lost contact with its parent vessel less than two hours after beginning its descent on Sunday.
With descent to the wreck expected to typically take around two and a half hours, it's not entirely clear where the sub was when contact was lost, where it could be now or whether there's anyone left alive to rescue.
Pogue's trip to the Titanic was cut short just 37 feet below the surface after a mechanical issue forced cancellation of the launch.
