Discovery of Titanic wreck

The wreck of the Titanic was discovered in 1985 by an expedition led by Dr. Robert Ballard using advanced underwater imaging technology. They employed a remotely operated submarine and sonar mapping to search the North Atlantic Ocean where the ship sank in 1912. After extensive exploration, they located the massive ship resting about 12,500 feet below the surface. This discovery provided valuable insights into the vessel’s final resting place and the details of the tragedy, helping historians and researchers study the conditions of the site and collecting artifacts.
