For the second consecutive day, black smoke has risen from the Sistine Chapel's chimney, signifying that the cardinals in conclave had not yet agreed on a new pope.
The smoke is a centuries-old tradition indicating an inconclusive result from the latest round of voting, and the cardinals will continue deliberations until a consensus is reached.
Thousands of people are still gathered in St. Peter's Square, eagerly awaiting news of a new spiritual leader for the Catholic Church.
White smoke will ultimately signal the successful election of a new pontiff, but the world must wait a little longer as the cardinals continue their discussions to choose the next Catholic Pontiff.
