A team of researchers has made history by capturing the first high-resolution, 3D images of the Titanic wreck, more than 100 years after the ship sank. Using advanced sonar and imaging technology, these photos provide an unprecedented look at the legendary ship, located 12,500 feet below the North Atlantic.
This groundbreaking discovery was showcased in a Virginia court as part of a legal case involving RMS Corporation, the exclusive rights holder for Titanic exploration. The expedition has already recovered about 6,000 artifacts from the ocean floor, worth over a million pounds, though the costs of such a challenging mission remain high due to the region’s harsh underwater conditions.
These developments represent a major leap in maritime archaeology, offering new insights into one of the most famous shipwrecks in history.
