Maritime experts fear that individuals stuck in the missing submersible are at risk of freezing to death, as rescue teams continue their search against the clock with less than 50 hours of oxygen left.
According to OceanGate, as of Tuesday at lunchtime, Titan, the lost submersible, will be halfway out of oxygen. The parent company, along with the Coast Guard, will be hosting a press conference with updates at 1 pm today.
The destination of the sub was the Titanic wreckage, which lies around 12,500 feet below sea level — that's about 10 times the height of the Empire State Building.
