The Titanic wreck, resting approximately 3,800 meters below the ocean surface, has been a popular destination for tourists who venture on small submersibles. The deep-sea wreckage was initially discovered in 1985 and has since been extensively explored by experts.

Earlier this year, in February, a remarkable video showcasing uncut footage of a previous visit to the Titanic wreck was released, providing 80 minutes of captivating imagery of the ship's remains.

In May, a groundbreaking achievement occurred when the first full-sized 3D scan of the shipwreck was unveiled. This comprehensive reconstruction, incorporating high-resolution images of remarkable detail, was meticulously crafted through deep-sea mapping techniques conducted by Magellan Ltd and Atlantic Productions in 2022.

Meanwhile, efforts are underway to locate the vessel and ensure the safety of those on board.
