Titanic

You won't find Leonard DiCaprio, but you will get an eye-opening new perspective on the decaying ship.

The shipwreck is fragile, and time and ocean conditions are taking a toll on it. The new video is an upgrade on the That's about as deep as the Titanic is located on the ocean floor.

OceanGate Expeditions shot the footage earlier this year with a manned submersible.

“And it brings attention to the underwater world and to shipwrecks in general, but in my opinion, there’s not that much to be learned from Titanic that we don’t already know.” (He dismissed the guests as “people paying a lot to be ballast.”) The project was put on hold due to the pandemic, and the new 8K footage may also help the company determine if this plan is still feasible two years later. "Capturing the 8K footage will allow us to zoom in and still have 4K quality, which is key for large-screen and immersive video projects," he said. This was the second OceanGate expedition to the Titanic wreckage, with another planned for next year. If that doesn't work, the expedition would cut through the roof, which is already heavily corroded. As the lower compartments of the ship filled with water and the crew rushed to evacuate as many passengers as possible into the limited number of lifeboats before the ship sank, the wireless telegraph operator sent out a series of increasingly frantic Morse Code messages, including what has become the world's best-known distress signal: dot dot dot dash dash dash dot dot dot (SOS). The footage was shot during the company's 2022 descent, with guests forking over $250,000 apiece for a seat on the submersible. While it's always awe-inspiring to see the famous wreck, especially with such clarity, there aren't any real discoveries or surprises in the new 8K footage. Since its discovery, the wreck has been deteriorating badly, and not just from accidental damage by salvage operations. The bow proved to be surprisingly intact, while the stern showed severe structural damage, likely flattened from the impact as it hit the ocean floor. One can make out the name of the anchor manufacturer (Noah Hingley & Sons Ltd.) for instance, and the footage also gives us a better look at the bow, hull number one, the number-one cargo hold, solid bronze capstans, and one of the single-ended boilers. Titanic is by far the most famous historical shipwreck, still holding an enduring fascination for the public 100 years after the "unsinkable" ship struck an iceberg and sank in April 1912.

With new state-of-the-art 8K cameras, researchers are getting footage of the wreckage of the Titanic in never before seen detail.

Even more remarkable are the phenomenal colors in this footage," said Stockton Rush, president of OceanGate Expeditions, in a statement. The footage provided by the team is the highest quality video ever taken of the world's most popular sunken vessel. The footage shows the ship's bow, portside anchor, hull number one, a 200-pound anchor chain, cargo hold, and bronze capstan.

"It is exciting that, after so many years, we may have discovered a new detail that wasn’t as obvious with previous generations of camera technologies." Also noticeable are the Titanic’s famous bow, as well as a portside anchor and a large anchor chain made up of links that weigh 200 pounds each.

That was my first introduction to people who did that type of work.” All had ties to Iowa, and all were passengers aboard the ill-fated Titanic on the fateful night of April 15, 1912, when the famous ocean liner sank.
