Today we start with a race against time. A tourist submersible on a mission to explore the wreck of the Titanic is now missing.

Contact with the sub was lost about an hour and 45 minutes into its dive on Sunday.

For the five people on board and the crew, it’s thought they have three to four days-worth of oxygen left at most. 

What’s going to happen?
