This is the first time explorers have learned how the Titanic was built, with intricate decorative details being vividly reconstructed from videos captured by robotic submarines.
Now, everyone knows which details the film Titanic accurately depicted and which ones were not. Among all the information discovered by researchers, the most haunting aspect is the artifacts that remind us of the presence of the ill-fated passengers. In Henry Harper’s cabin on Deck D, his hat remains among the wreckage of the wardrobe.

A remaining crane on the promenade deck. Two smaller cranes, one at each end, were used to lower a lifeboat into the sea. This very mechanism helped lower lifeboat C, where J. Bruce Ismay—the chairman of the company that owned the Titanic—sat, ultimately ensuring his survival.
The dream of seeing the legendary Titanic up close may soon become a reality with the submarine from OceanGate, a company based in the United States. Recently, OceanGate has developed a submarine capable of taking tourists down to depths of 4,000 meters beneath the sea. This submarine, which can accommodate five people, will allow guests to see the legendary wreck of the Titanic up close. To participate in this adventurous exploration, one would need to spend around $100,000. Adjusted for inflation, this amount is roughly equivalent to what one would pay for a first-class cabin on the Titanic during its fateful voyage in 1912…
