Scan of Titanic reveals wreck as never seen before - BBC News

The world's most famous shipwreck has been revealed as never seen before.
The first full-sized digital scan of the Titanic, which lies 3,800m (12,500ft) down in the Atlantic, has been created using deep-sea mapping.
It provides a unique 3D view of the entire ship, enabling it to be seen as if the wayer has been drained.
The hope is that this will shed new light on exactly what happened to the liner, which sank in 1912 - killing 1,500 people.

My grandfather told me that he saw the Titanic.. and that from the beginning he warned all the people that the ship would sink, but nobody listened to him. He was a brave man. He did not give up. He warned them again and again on several occasions.... until they kicked him out of the cinema.

[@Zopiexx]

😂 He's truly brave

[@cindihunter9119]

I remember that there was an assumption around that time through the stories I heard, that the "Titanic would not sink!", It was a new vessel and droves of people who were wealthy went on this vessel. The arrogance was staggering, and I don't understand why people actually shunned others because there was talk of it not being safe. Truly a tragedy! 😮

Why wasn't the ship safe.

[@oleggorky906]

The saying back then was that “God himself couldn’t sink her,” because the Titanic was the largest ship 🚢 ever built at the time of its launch in 1912. But yes, this was only 11 years after the end of the Victorian era and there was still an attitude of arrogance and superiority that prevailed among the upper crust.

The look of horror mixed with anguish that came over his face told me never to ask again. He was in his 70's at the time. My grandmother told my mom that when he heard that the ship had sunk, he cried. The only time that he cried in the 50 years they were married. Mom was 3-1/2 months old at the time.

I never heard why. He was tool and die maker and the apprentice master with a 135 apprentices studying under him, employed by the lighting manufacturer. He would have been from one end of the ship to the other and may have seen flaws that would have doomed the ship and recognized them. The huge loss of life on a ship that he had spent years working on both in the manufacturing and installation of the lighting was probably the reason. As I said it haunted him for the rest of his life.

It's almost impossible to imagine what the ship would have looked like sitting on the ocean floor when it first sank; We see rust, rot, etc, decades later but the ship was brand new when it sank and therefore she would have obviously been her original colors of red, black and white when she hit the sea floor, and her interior still incredibly lavish. It's just really hard to imagine such a beautiful thing sitting there with no rust and far less collapsed and tattered than what we see now. Having watched plenty of models and digital renderings of the sinking, I've seen what the ship would have looked like, yeah, but it's still extremely difficult to picture it in real life just sitting there rust and rot-free, long before the "rusticles" started to devour the ship and all the other things that have taken place in the years since, causing her to look the way she does over a century later.

"Lost Voices From the Titanic" is a great book for anyone interested in this subject. It traces all the mistakes that led up to the final mistake. It was not just the iceberg. It began with the ship's design, building materials, the use of cheaper coal (requiring higher burning temperatures affecting integrity), and lack of binoculars. Plus more. It also tells the stories of all who lost their lives. Edit: I've become aware that there are several books on this subject with similar titles.

[@trekkie1701c]

"We don't even know if she hit on the starboard side, she could have grounded" The ship had a double bottom specifically to prevent damage from grounding allowing water in, as grounding was a really common way for ships to sink (White Star Line had actually lost a ship that grounded off of Halifax not long before Titanic's design process started). And if you look at the wreck, you can actually see some of the iceberg damage as a line on the starboard side of the hull (near the bottom of the ship, under the bridge) which is where boiler room's 5 and 6 were. (Oddly, that line is missing from this model, despite being really clearly visible on photographs of the wreck). Also even if there were grounding damage, this model doesn't actually capture the bottom of the ship so you'd not be able to tell anything about that anyway.

There's just simply no way this model would tell us whether the ship had grounding damage or not, and there's visible damage on the starboard side of the wreck that corresponds to where survivors saw water flooding in. I don't see how an expert could argue otherwise. They could say that perhaps the ship did take grounding damage as an example of an unknown but again - this is just a model made of pictures. They didn't actually do any scans that would show them what the condition of the bottom of the hull is. There's no way to use these scans to determine grounding damage.

Those billionaires in that sub should’ve just watched this videos for free

[@alextriplett9414]

God, it’s amazing how well the bow has held up over the years, but it’s also depressing to see the condition of the stern, and how badly it’s falling apart.

[@herk8762]

Yes, the stern suffered an implosion on the way down. Trapped air also means people alive. Having said that, horrific fact is that there were most likely people still alive in the stern, in complete darkness that were conscious and aware of the stern section of the ship being underwater for a brief time (15-20 seconds maybe) before it imploded. Death was instant but that must have felt like an eternity…

[@samsignorelli]

Among other things, how the parts impacted the sea floor has an effect....I remember reading that the bow section descended like a male leaf while the stern just plunged. The bow landed...the stern crashed.

[@tommurphree5630]

The way all the articles spilled out of the ship , it looks as though the stern might have been affected by the breaking up also . If my memory is correct the Titanic broke in two when the bow slammed in to the ocean floor .

[@samsignorelli]

@@tommurphree5630 No....she broke in half just under the surface...as the bow went under the stern came up out of the water and put stresses on the hull it was never designed for, resulting in the hull splitting in 2. Had she broken apart on impact, there would not be an 800 meter gap between the halves, no debris field between them, and the halves wouldn't be facing differing directions. Survivors reported that the stern was vertical at the surface after the bow went under....that's when a lot of stuff fell out of the stern...then the keel holding the 2 halves together broke and they descended separately.

[@tommurphree5630]

@sam signorelli Hard to say . That was a long way to the bottom , and yet the stern and front part of the ship are lined up with each other on the ocean floor . I would think if the bow went down first , the shape of it would be different than the stern and the different shapes would effect the path direction as they plowed through the water . It might be possible there was a rebound effect when the bow hit first , causing the stern to separate itself and drift slightly backward before it settled .

[@dress4villaiins]

after 111 years it’s truly unbelievable to see the ruined old wreck of a ship which had an unfinished story and never got to complete her maiden voyage. knowing there used to be thousands of souls there at some point in time who were so hopeful and excited to start a new life/experience something new. hearing about this fatal disaster still gives me chills, I can’t imagine the day when the whole wreck will be disintegrated and how there will be almost no remains of it. rest in peace to everyone who perished 🕊️

Yeah, a great sense of proportion, to show you how tiny this ship actually is. It was only 883 feet long. Our biggest cruise ship today is 1,188 Feet long.

Im a third generation American, but my great-great-grandparents had bought tickets on the Titanic so the family could immigrate to the States on the maiden voyage. Quite luckily, the White Star Line had overbooked the ship, and my ancestors were denied lodging on the ship. Largest bullet dodge for my family, hands down, considering they were considered third class passengers, the largest majority of which went down with the ship.

[@alexmartinez5859]

@Michelle Don’t know, actually, but I can hazard a guess that it was the Irish family line. The Titanic had left from Southampton, and had two ports of call that in Cherbourg, France, and Cobh, Ireland. My family is mostly from Europe, but none of my great-grandparents are French and the only family line that lived close to the port of call of Cherbourg was the Belgian line that was smuggled out of Belgium during WWI, so it rules out the Cherbourg stop. The only two other stops it could have been were the preliminary English port of Southampton, where the English or Welsh lines would have likely left, or the Irish line from the Irish port of call of Cobh. Given my family was third class up until my mother finally got us into somewhat of a middle class lifestyle, any family from mainland Europe likely would not have had the resources to take a boat across the English Channel and then take a ship across the Atlantic.
