New photos of the Titanic have surfaced!

The new first-of-a-kind image of the Titanic shows an anchor chain, a giant harbor anchor, and a single-ended cauldron that fell to the bottom of the sea when the ship broke apart and sank. 110 years ago.

The photos, taken by dive tour company OceanGate Expeditions, show an amazing level of detail and color not seen by the human eye since April 12, 1912.

The team shot the historic ship in the highest video resolution with a width of about 8,000 pixels (8 kilobytes), allowing them to zoom in on specific areas without sacrificing image quality.

This allowed them to see never-before-seen details such as “Noah Hingley & Sons Ltd” engraved on the harbourside anchor, giving an insight into how the wreckage had changed into his underwater burial.

This is OceanGate Expeditions’ second annual Titanic expedition, bringing mission experts and researchers aboard the giant ship as the company’s submersible Titan is safely contained.

Titanic’s voyage took place on an eight-day mission that began in May and ended in June, and each “mission specialist” seat cost $250,000, up $125,000 from the previous year.

“The stunning detail in the 8k image will help our team and marine archaeologists more accurately identify the wreck of the Titanic when taking new images in 2023 and beyond,” said Stockton Rush, president of OceanGate Expeditions. Said.

Citizen explorers or mission specialists can be found in St. They begin their adventure by sailing an expedition ship to the site of the Titanic wreck, 370 miles from St. John’s.

OceanGate Expeditions then used a five-person carbon fiber and titanium-grade submersible Cyclops to ferry archaeologists and paying customers — the ship takes up to three experts on missions, which last eight up to 10 hours per dive.

Titan is equipped with the latest camera technology to take high-resolution images that will help determine the rate of debris decomposition and assess the marine life living on the wreck.

The expedition plunged deep into the North Atlantic Ocean until underwater lights flickered aboard the eerie ship.

During the voyage, the divers discovered the number one boat, the number one cargo ship, and massive bronze hatches, which are metal structures used to carry heavy loads with ropes, cables or chains.

All of this was seen for the first time since the Titanic sank to the ocean floor.

Experts believe decades of salvage and other discoveries — including director James Cameron’s famous dive in 2001 — have further eroded the integrity of the 108-year-old structure.

The hull is likely to collapse within the next 40 years, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
