Less Than 50 Hours Left: Five Lives Hang in the Balance as Rescue Efforts Intensify for Titanic Exploration Mission (they run out of air on Thursday)

A submersible carrying five people on a mission to explore the wreckage of the Titanic has gone missing in the Atlantic Ocean. The submersible, named the Titan, was part of a mission by OceanGate Expeditions and was reported overdue on Sunday night, approximately 435 miles south of St. John's, Newfoundland. The crew had a 96-hour oxygen supply when they set out on Sunday, and every passing minute puts them at greater risk. Search and rescue efforts are underway by Canadian and U.S. authorities, with the assistance of ships and aircraft. The missing crew includes a pilot, a British adventurer, two members of a Pakistani business family, and another passenger. OceanGate's expeditions to the Titanic wreck site aim to document the ship's deterioration, which sank over a century ago.
