Underwater Search Resumes For Missing Malaysia Airlines Plane -- CNN

(CNN) -- The underwater probe being used to look for missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 was back in the water after its first attempt ended prematurely, the company that owns the vehicle, Phoenix International, told CNN.

The Bluefin-21 autonomous underwater vehicle was about four hours into its second dive mission at 2 p.m. ET Tuesday (2 a.m. Wednesday in Perth, Australia), a source close to the operation told CNN's Brian Todd.

On Monday, crews sent the probe toward the ocean floor on what was expected to be a 20-hour deployment, only to have it return in less than eight hours after encountering waters beyond its 4,500-meter (14,764-foot) maximum depth.

The probe found no debris during its shortened scanning session.
