The mystery of the Titanic is still not solved. More than a century has passed since this big tragedy.
It has not yet been revealed what happened on the tragic night in 1912 when the ship sank with over 1,500 people on board. The richest people in the world at the time were on the Titanic. Likewise, hundreds of migrants, as well as all those who wished to set sail for the “promised land”.
Mapping the ocean floor led to the first complete scan of the Titanic. So you can see it as if water does not exist.
“There are still questions, fundamental questions, that need to be answered,” said the Titanic analyst.
This model will be one of the first major steps towards evidence-based research. The wreck of the Titanic was found in 1985. In the ocean’s darkness’s depths, only partial shots of the ship, which is already in disintegration, are visible.
Thanks to the new footage, the entire wreckage will be visible. We are also expecting a documentary film about this project. During the research, the submarines spent over 200 hours underwater. They took over 700,000 photos to capture every angle of the Titanic.
This is also the largest underwater scanning project.
It is almost 4,000 meters deep. It is a challenge, and there are also currents in that place. We must touch nothing in order not to damage the wreck,” explained Gerhard Seifert. He is the man who led this great expedition.
One of the interesting things is that no one has yet understood collisions with icebergs. It is not even known whether the ship was hit from the starboard side. That’s how we saw it in the cult movie.
