The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute has unveiled never-before-seen images of the wreckage of the ocean liner that sank in 1912.
These are “rare” images allowing an “epic time travel”. The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute unveiled unpublished images of the wreck of the Titanic on Wednesday evening, via the publication of a video of more than an hour.
These images were captured in 1986, more than 70 years after the liner sank off Newfoundland (Canada), by the American submarine Alvin and a remotely operated vehicle, the institute said on its site.

The Titanic sank in 1912 on its maiden voyage from England to New York when it struck an iceberg. If 719 passengers survived, 1500 other people perished. The wreck now lies more than 3800 meters deep in international waters of the North Atlantic.
These never-before-seen images of the liner were released as the movie “Titanic” celebrates its 25th anniversary. For this occasion, “Titanic” returns to cinemas in a remastered version in 4K and 3D.
