2,100 fathoms), about 325 nautical miles (600 kilometres) south-southeast off the coast of <a href="/wiki/Newfoundland_(island)" title="Newfoundland (island)">Newfoundland</a>. It lies in two main pieces about 2,000 feet (600 m) apart. The <a href="/wiki/Bow_(ship)" class="mw-redirect" title="Bow (ship)">bow</a> is still recognisable with many preserved interiors, despite deterioration and damage sustained hitting the <a href="/wiki/Sea_floor" class="mw-redirect" title="Sea floor">sea floor</a>. In contrast, the <a href="/wiki/Stern" title="Stern">stern</a> is heavily damaged. A debris field around the wreck contains hundreds of thousands of items spilled from the ship as she sank. The bodies of the passengers and crew would originally have been distributed across the seabed, but have been consumed by organisms. The Titanic sank in 1912, following <a href="/wiki/Sinking_of_the_Titanic" title="Sinking of the Titanic">her collision with an iceberg</a> during her maiden voyage. Numerous expeditions unsuccessfully tried using <a href="/wiki/Sonar" title="Sonar">sonar</a> to map the seabed in the hope of finding the wreckage. In 1985, the wreck was finally located by a joint French–American expedition led by <a href="/wiki/Jean-Louis_Michel_(oceanographer)" title="Jean-Louis Michel (oceanographer)">Jean-Louis Michel</a> of <a href="/wiki/IFREMER" title="IFREMER">IFREMER</a> and <a href="/wiki/Robert_Ballard" title="Robert Ballard">Robert Ballard</a> of the <a href="/wiki/Woods_Hole_Oceanographic_Institution" title="Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution">Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution</a>, originally on a mission to find two nuclear <a href="/wiki/Cold_War" title="Cold War">Cold War</a> submarines. The wreck has been the focus of intense interest and has been visited by numerous tourist and scientific expeditions, including by the submersible <a href="/wiki/Titan_(submersible)" title="Titan (submersible)">Titan</a>, <a href="/wiki/Titan_submersible_implosion" title="Titan submersible implosion">which imploded near the wreck</a> in June 2023, killing all five aboard. Controversial salvage operations have recovered thousands of items, many of which have been conserved and put on public display. Many schemes have been proposed to raise the wreck, including filling it with ping-pong balls, injecting it with 180,000 tons of <a href="/wiki/Vaseline" title="Vaseline">Vaseline</a>, or using half a million tons of <a href="/wiki/Liquid_nitrogen" title="Liquid nitrogen">liquid nitrogen</a> to encase it in an iceberg that would float to the surface. However, the wreck is too fragile to be raised and is protected by a <a href="/wiki/UNESCO" title="UNESCO">UNESCO</a> convention. <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Salvaging_the_Titanic">Salvaging the Titanic</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Wreck_of_the_Titanic&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Salvaging the Titanic">edit</a>]</div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1238443738">.mw-parser-output .locmap .od{position:absolute}.mw-parser-output .locmap .id{position:absolute;line-height:0}.mw-parser-output .locmap .l0{font-size:0;position:absolute}.mw-parser-output .locmap .pv{line-height:110%;position:absolute;text-align:center}.mw-parser-output .locmap .pl{line-height:110%;position:absolute;top:-0.75em;text-align:right}.mw-parser-output .locmap .pr{line-height:110%;position:absolute;top:-0.75em;text-align:left}.mw-parser-output .locmap .pv>div{display:inline;padding:1px}.mw-parser-output .locmap .pl>div{display:inline;padding:1px;float:right}.mw-parser-output .locmap .pr>div{display:inline;padding:1px;float:left}@media screen{html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .od,html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .od .pv>div,html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .od .pl>div,html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .od .pr>div{background:#fff!important;color:#000!important}html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .locmap{filter:grayscale(0.6)}html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .infobox-full-data .locmap div{background:transparent!important}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .locmap{filter:grayscale(0.6)}html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .od,html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .od .pv>div,html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .od .pl>div,html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .od .pr>div{background:white!important;color:#000!important}html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .infobox-full-data .locmap div{background:transparent!important}}</style><div class="locmap noviewer noresize thumb tright"><div class="thumbinner" style="width:202px"><div style="position:relative;width:200px;border:1px solid lightgray"><a href="/wiki/File:North_Atlantic_Ocean_laea_relief_location_map.jpg" class="mw-file-description" title="Wreck of the Titanic is located in North Atlantic"><img alt="Wreck of the Titanic is located in North Atlantic" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/26/North_Atlantic_Ocean_laea_relief_location_map.jpg/200px-North_Atlantic_Ocean_laea_relief_location_map.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="162" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/26/North_Atlantic_Ocean_laea_relief_location_map.jpg/300px-North_Atlantic_Ocean_laea_relief_location_map.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/26/North_Atlantic_Ocean_laea_relief_location_map.jpg/400px-North_Atlantic_Ocean_laea_relief_location_map.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1181" data-file-height="958" /></a><div class="od notheme" style="top:43.576%;left:40.083%;font-size:91%"><div class="id" style="left:-4px;top:-4px"><img alt="Wreck of the Titanic" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0c/Red_pog.svg/8px-Red_pog.svg.png" decoding="async" width="8" height="8" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0c/Red_pog.svg/12px-Red_pog.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0c/Red_pog.svg/16px-Red_pog.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="64" data-file-height="64" /></div></div></div><div class="thumbcaption"><div class="magnify"><a href="/wiki/File:North_Atlantic_Ocean_laea_relief_location_map.jpg" title="File:North Atlantic Ocean laea relief location map.jpg">class=notpageimage| </a></div>Location of the wreck of the Titanic in the North Atlantic</div></div></div> Almost immediately after the Titanic sank on 15 April 1912, proposals were advanced to salvage it from its resting place in the North <a href="/wiki/Atlantic_Ocean" title="Atlantic Ocean">Atlantic Ocean</a>, despite her exact location and condition being unknown. The families of several wealthy victims of the disaster – the <a href="/wiki/Guggenheim_family" title="Guggenheim family">Guggenheims</a>, <a href="/wiki/Astor_family" title="Astor family">Astors</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Widener_family" title="Widener family">Wideners</a> – formed a consortium and contracted the Merritt and Chapman Derrick and Wrecking Company to raise the Titanic.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEEatonHaas1987130-2">[2]</a> The project was soon abandoned as impractical as the divers could not even reach a significant fraction of the necessary depth, where the pressure is over 6,000 pounds per square inch (40 megapascals),[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Accuracy_dispute#Disputed_statement" title="Wikipedia:Accuracy dispute">dubious</a> – <a href="/wiki/Talk:Wreck_of_the_Titanic#Dubious" title="Talk:Wreck of the Titanic">discuss</a>] about 400 <a href="/wiki/Standard_atmosphere_(unit)" title="Standard atmosphere (unit)">standard atmospheres</a>. The company considered dropping dynamite on the wreck to dislodge bodies which would float to the surface, but finally gave up after oceanographers suggested that the extreme pressure would have compressed the bodies into gelatinous lumps.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWade199272-3">[3]</a> In fact, this was incorrect. <a href="/wiki/Whale_fall" title="Whale fall">Whale falls</a>, a phenomenon not discovered until 1987—coincidentally, by the same submersible used for the first crewed expedition to the Titanic the year before<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTELittle2010-4">[4]</a>—demonstrate that water-filled corpses, in this case <a href="/wiki/Cetacea" title="Cetacea">cetaceans</a>, can sink to the bottom essentially intact.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEEstes2006298-5">[5]</a> The high pressure and low temperature of the water would have prevented significant quantities of gas forming during <a href="/wiki/Decomposition" title="Decomposition">decomposition</a>, preventing the bodies of Titanic victims from rising back to the surface.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard1987207-6">[6]</a> In later years, numerous proposals were put forward to salvage the Titanic. However, all fell afoul of practical and technological difficulties, a lack of funding and, in many cases, a lack of understanding of the physical conditions at the wreck site. Charles Smith, a <a href="/wiki/Denver" title="Denver">Denver</a> architect, proposed in March 1914 to attach electromagnets to a submarine which would be irresistibly drawn to the wreck's steel hull. Having found its exact position, more electromagnets would be sent down from a fleet of barges which would winch the Titanic to the surface.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTELord1987226-7">[7]</a> An estimated cost of US$1.5 million ($35.5 million today) and its impracticality meant that the idea was not put into practice. Another proposal involved raising the Titanic by means of attaching balloons to her hull using electromagnets. Once enough balloons had been attached, the ship would float gently to the surface. Again, the idea got no further than the drawing board.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTELord1987227-8">[8]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Salvage_proposals_in_the_1960s_and_1970s">Salvage proposals in the 1960s and 1970s</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Wreck_of_the_Titanic&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Salvage proposals in the 1960s and 1970s">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Raise_The_Titanic_Movie_Poster.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/4e/Raise_The_Titanic_Movie_Poster.jpg/170px-Raise_The_Titanic_Movie_Poster.jpg" decoding="async" width="170" height="267" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/4e/Raise_The_Titanic_Movie_Poster.jpg 1.5x" data-file-width="252" data-file-height="396" /></a><figcaption>The Titanic surfacing on a poster publicising the film <a href="/wiki/Raise_the_Titanic_(film)" title="Raise the Titanic (film)">Raise the Titanic</a>.

To raise funds for his Titanic expedition, he obtained sponsorship from friends with whom he played poker, sold media rights through the <a href="/wiki/William_Morris_Agency" title="William Morris Agency">William Morris Agency</a>, commissioned a book, and obtained the services of <a href="/wiki/Orson_Welles" title="Orson Welles">Orson Welles</a> to narrate a documentary.

The scientists issued an ultimatum: "It's either us or the monkey." Grimm preferred the monkey, but was prevailed upon to take the scientists instead.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard198747-22">[22]</a> The results were inconclusive, as three weeks of surveying in almost continuous bad weather during July and August 1980 failed to find the Titanic. The problem was exacerbated by technological limitations; the Sea MARC sonar used by the expedition had a relatively low resolution and was a new and untested piece of equipment. It was nearly lost only 36 hours after it was first deployed when the tail was ripped off during a sharp turn, destroying the <a href="/wiki/Magnetometer" title="Magnetometer">magnetometer</a>, which would have been vital for detecting the Titanic's hull. Nonetheless, it surveyed an area of some 500 square nautical miles (1,700 square kilometres) and identified 14 possible targets.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard198747-22">[22]</a> A <a href="/wiki/List_of_films_about_the_Titanic#Documentaries" title="List of films about the Titanic">documentary</a> of this expedition, featuring Welles, was titled Search for the Titanic (1981).<a href="#cite_note-:0-23">[23]</a> Grimm mounted a second expedition in June 1981 aboard the research vessel Gyre, with Spiess and Ryan again joining the expedition.<a href="#cite_note-:0-23">[23]</a> To increase their chances of finding the wreck, the team employed a much more capable sonar device, the Scripps Deep Tow. The weather was again very poor, but all 14 of the targets were successfully covered and found to be natural features. On the last day of the expedition, an object that looked like a propeller was found.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard198750-24">[24]</a> Grimm announced on his return to Boston that the Titanic had been found, but the scientists declined to endorse his identification. The object would never be seen again. <a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard198751-25">[25]</a> A documentary of this expedition, featuring <a href="/wiki/James_Drury" title="James Drury">James Drury</a>, was titled Return to the Titanic (1981). This and the previous film were later combined into a single production, In Search of Titanic (1981). In July 1983, Grimm went back a third time with Ryan aboard the research vessel Robert D. Conrad. Nothing was found and bad weather brought an early end to the expedition.

Michael Harris and Jack Grimm failed to find the Titanic, but their expeditions did succeed in producing fairly detailed mapping of the area in which the ship sank.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard198751-25">[25]</a> It was clear that the position given in the Titanic's distress signals was inaccurate, which was a major expedition difficulty because it increased the search area's already-expansive size. Despite the failure of his 1977 expedition, Ballard had not given up hope and devised new technologies and a new search strategy to tackle the problem. The new technology was a system called Argo / Jason. This consisted of a remotely controlled deep-sea vehicle called Argo, equipped with sonar and cameras and towed behind a ship, with a robot called Jason tethered to it that could roam the sea floor, take close-up images and gather specimens. The images from the system would be transmitted back to a control room on the towing vessel where they could be assessed immediately. Although it was designed for scientific purposes, it also had important military applications and the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Navy" title="United States Navy">United States Navy</a> agreed to sponsor the system's development,<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard198753-27">[27]</a> on condition that it was to be used to carry out a number of programmes—many still classified—for the Navy.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard2008100-28">[28]</a> The Navy commissioned Ballard and his team to carry out a month-long expedition every year for four years, to keep Argo / Jason in good working condition.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallardHively2002235-29">[29]</a> It agreed to Ballard's proposal to use some of the time to search for the Titanic once the Navy's objectives had been met; the search would provide an ideal opportunity to test Argo / Jason. In 1984 the Navy sent Ballard and Argo to map the wrecks of the sunken nuclear submarines <a href="/wiki/USS_Thresher_(SSN-593)" title="USS Thresher (SSN-593)">USS Thresher</a> and <a href="/wiki/USS_Scorpion_(SSN-589)" title="USS Scorpion (SSN-589)">USS Scorpion</a>, lost in the North Atlantic at depths of up to 9,800 ft (3,000 m).<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard200897-30">[30]</a> The expedition found the submarines and made an important discovery about how shipwrecks behave as they sink. As Thresher and Scorpion sank, debris spilled out from them across a wide area of the seabed and was sorted by the currents, so that light debris drifted furthest away from the site of the sinking. This debris field was far larger than the wrecks themselves. By following the comet-like trail of debris, the main pieces of wreckage could be found.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallardHively2002225-31">[31]</a> A second expedition to map the wreck of Scorpion was mounted in 1985. Only twelve days' search time would be left at the end of the expedition to look for the Titanic.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard200897-30">[30]</a> As Harris/Grimm's unsuccessful efforts had taken more than forty days,<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard198751-25">[25]</a> Ballard decided that extra help would be needed. He approached the French national oceanographic agency, <a href="/wiki/IFREMER" title="IFREMER">IFREMER</a>, with which Woods Hole had previously collaborated. The agency had recently developed a high-resolution side-scan sonar called SAR and agreed to send a research vessel, <a href="/wiki/RV_Le_Suro%C3%AEt" title="RV Le Suroît">Le Suroît</a>, to survey the sea bed in the area where the Titanic was believed to lie. The idea was for the French to use the sonar to find likely targets, and then for the Americans to use Argo to check out the targets and hopefully confirm whether they were in fact the wreck.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallardHively2002239-32">[32]</a> The French team spent five weeks, from 5 July to 12 August 1985, "mowing the lawn" – sailing back and forth across the 150-square-nautical-mile (510-square-kilometre) target area to scan the sea bed in a series of stripes. However, they found nothing; though it turned out that they had passed within a few hundred yards of the Titanic in their first run.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard200898-33">[33]</a> Ballard realised that looking for the wreck itself using sonar was unlikely to be successful and adopted a different tactic: drawing on the experience of the surveys of Thresher and Scorpion, he would look for the debris field instead,<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard2008101-34">[34]</a> using Argo's cameras rather than sonar. While sonar could not distinguish human-made debris on the sea bed from natural objects, cameras could. The debris field would also be a far bigger target, stretching one nautical mile (2 km) or longer, whereas the Titanic itself was only 90 feet (27 m) wide.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard198766-35">[35]</a> The search required round-the-clock towing of Argo back and forth above the sea bed, with shifts of watchers aboard the research vessel Knorr looking at the camera pictures for any sign of debris.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallardHively2002250-36">[36]</a> After a week's fruitless searching, at 12:48 am on Sunday 1 September 1985, pieces of debris began to appear on Knorr's screens. One of them was identified as a boiler, identical to those shown in pictures from 1911.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard198782-37">[37]</a> The following day, the main part of the wreck was found and Argo sent back the first pictures of the Titanic since her sinking 73 years before.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard198788-38">[38]</a> The discovery made headlines around the world.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard198798-39">[39]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Subsequent_expeditions">Subsequent expeditions</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Wreck_of_the_Titanic&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Subsequent expeditions">edit</a>]</div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="1986–1998:_Nautile,_item_recovery,_and_Titanic_film">1986–1998: Nautile, item recovery, and Titanic film</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Wreck_of_the_Titanic&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: 1986–1998: Nautile, item recovery, and Titanic film">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:ALVIN_submersible.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f6/ALVIN_submersible.jpg/170px-ALVIN_submersible.jpg" decoding="async" width="170" height="219" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f6/ALVIN_submersible.jpg/255px-ALVIN_submersible.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f6/ALVIN_submersible.jpg/340px-ALVIN_submersible.jpg 2x" data-file-width="930" data-file-height="1197" /></a><figcaption>DSV Alvin, used in 1986 to mount the first crewed expedition to the wreck of the Titanic</figcaption></figure> Following his discovery of the wreck site, Ballard returned to the Titanic in July 1986 aboard the research vessel <a href="/wiki/RV_Atlantis_II" title="RV Atlantis II">RV Atlantis II</a>.

The first, carried out between 22 June and 2 July 2003, performed four dives in two days. Its key aims were to assess the current condition of the wreck site and carry out scientific observations to support ongoing research. The stern section, which had previously received relatively little attention from explorers, was specifically targeted for analysis. The microbial colonies aboard the Titanic were also a key focus of investigation.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTENOAA2003-67">[67]</a> The second expedition, from 27 May – 12 June 2004, saw the return of Robert Ballard to the Titanic nearly 20 years after he discovered it. The expedition spent 11 days on the wreck, carrying out high-resolution mapping using video and stereoscopic still images.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTENOAA2004-68">[68]</a> In 2005 there were two expeditions to the Titanic. James Cameron returned for the third and last time to film Last Mysteries of the Titanic. Another expedition searched for previously unseen pieces of wreckage, and led to the documentary Titanic's Final Moments: Missing Pieces. RMS Titanic Inc. mounted further expeditions to the Titanic in 2004<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETimeline_for_2004-69">[69]</a> and 2010, when the first comprehensive map of the entire debris field was produced. Two <a href="/wiki/Autonomous_underwater_vehicle" title="Autonomous underwater vehicle">autonomous underwater vehicles</a>—torpedo-shaped robots—repeatedly ran backward and forward across the 3-by-5-nautical-mile (6 km × 9 km) debris field, taking sonar scans and over 130,000 high-resolution images. This enabled a detailed photomosaic of the debris field to be created for the first time, giving scientists a much clearer view of the dynamics of the ship's sinking. The expedition encountered difficulties: several hurricanes passed over the wreck site, and the Remora ROV was caught in a piece of wreckage.

The proposed plan that Ballard announced has been outlined in a documentary made to time with the Titanic's 100th sinking anniversary called Save the Titanic With Bob Ballard where Ballard himself talks about how this proposed paint job on the wreck will work. Ballard says that he proposed to robotically clean and repaint the Titanic with a colour scheme mimicking rusticles because he saw "original anti-fouling paint on the ship's hull, which was still working even after 74 years on the seabed" when he visited the Titanic in 1986.<a href="#cite_note-natgeo-73">[73]</a> In August 2019, a team of explorers and scientists used <a href="/wiki/Deep-submergence_vehicle" title="Deep-submergence vehicle">deep-submergence vehicle</a> <a href="/wiki/DSV_Limiting_Factor" title="DSV Limiting Factor">Limiting Factor</a> to visit the wreck, marking the first crewed dive to the ship in 14 years.

The two main parts of the wreck of the Titanic present a striking contrast.

Its distance from the stern was caused by its planing forward horizontally by about 1 ft for every 6 ft (1 m for every 6 m) of its descent.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHalpernWeeks2011127-91">[91]</a> During the descent to the sea bed, the funnels were swept away, taking with them the rigging and large lengths of cables. These dragged along the boat deck, tearing away many of the davits and much of the other deck equipment.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTELynch1992205-92">[92]</a> The foremast was also torn down, falling onto the port bridge area. The ship's wheelhouse was swept away, possibly after being hit by the falling foremast.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard1987204-90">[90]</a> The bow hit the bottom at a speed of about 20 knots (10 metres per second), digging about 60 feet (20 m) deep into the mud, up to the base of the anchors. The impact bent the hull in two places and caused it to buckle downwards by about 10° under the forward well deck cranes and by about 4° under the forward <a href="/wiki/Expansion_joint" title="Expansion joint">expansion joint</a>. When the bow section hit the sea bed, the weakened decks at the rear, where the ship had broken apart, collapsed on top of each other.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHalpernWeeks2011127-91">[91]</a> The forward hatch cover was also blown off and landed a couple of hundred feet in front of the bow, possibly due to the force of water being pushed out as the bow impacted the bottom.<a href="#cite_note-93">[93]</a> The area around the bridge is particularly badly damaged; as Robert Ballard has put it, it looks "as if it had been squashed by a giant's fist".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard1987206-94">[94]</a> The roof of the officers' quarters and the sides of the gymnasium appear pushed in, railings were bent outwards, and vertical steel columns supporting the decks were bent into a C-shape. <a href="/wiki/Charles_R._Pellegrino" title="Charles R. Pellegrino">Charles R. Pellegrino</a> has proposed that this was the result of a "down-blast" of water, caused by a slipstream that had followed the bow section as it fell towards the sea bed. According to Pellegrino's hypothesis, when the bow came to an abrupt halt the inertia of the slipstream caused a rapidly moving column of water weighing thousands of tons to strike the top of the wreck, striking it near the bridge. This, argues Pellegrino, caused large parts of the bow's interior to be demolished by surges of water and violent eddies kicked up by the wreck's sudden halt.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPellegrino2012100–101-95">[95]</a> The damage caused by the collision with the iceberg is not visible at the bow as it is buried under mud.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEGannon1995-96">[96]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Interiors">Interiors</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Wreck_of_the_Titanic&action=edit&section=11" title="Edit section: Interiors">edit</a>]</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/First-class_facilities_of_the_Titanic" title="First-class facilities of the Titanic">First-class facilities of the Titanic</a></div> Despite the exterior devastation caused by the bow's descent and collision with the ocean floor, there are parts of the interior in reasonably good condition.

The water is bitterly cold at only about 1–2 °C (34–36 °F), there is no light, and the high pressure was thought to be likely to lower oxygen and salinity levels to the point that organisms would not be able to gain a foothold on the wreck. The Titanic would effectively be in a deep freeze.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEButler1998214-112">[112]</a> The reality has turned out to be very different, and the ship has increasingly deteriorated since she sank in April 1912.

They have produced "reddish-brown stalactites of rust [hanging] down as much as several feet, looking like long needle-like icicles", as Ballard has put it. The formations, which Ballard dubbed "<a href="/wiki/Rusticle" title="Rusticle">rusticles</a>", are extremely fragile and disintegrate in a cloud of particles if touched.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard1987122-130">[130]</a> The bacteria consume the iron in the hull, oxidising it, and leaving rust particles behind as a waste product. To protect themselves from the seawater, they secrete an acidic viscous slime that flows where gravity takes it, carrying ferric oxides and hydroxides. These form the rusticles.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBallard1987208-124">[124]</a> When scientists were able to retrieve a rusticle, it was discovered that it was far more complex than had been imagined, with complex systems of roots infiltrating the metal, interior channels, bundles of fibres, pores, and other structures. Charles Pellegrino comments that they seem more akin to "levels of tissue organization found in sponges or mosses and other members of the animal or plant kingdoms."<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPellegrino2012200-131">[131]</a> The bacteria are estimated to be consuming the Titanic's hull at the rate of 400 pounds (180 kg) per day, which is about 17 pounds (7.7 kg) per hour or <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1154941027">4+1⁄2 ounces (130 grams) per minute.

Underwater bacteria have been eating away at the Titanic's steel and transformed it into rust since the ship sank, but because of the extra damage caused by visitors, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration estimates that "the hull and structure of the ship may collapse to the ocean floor within the next 50 years."<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTECrosbieMortimer2006last_page_(no_page_number_specified)-133">[133]</a> The promenade deck has deteriorated significantly in recent years, partly because of damage caused by submersibles landing on the ship.

The tone of the event was described by one commentator as "unsympathetic, lack[ing] dignity and finesse, and [with] all the superficial qualities of a 'media event'."<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEEatonHaas1994310-42">[42]</a> <a href="/wiki/The_New_York_Times" title="The New York Times">New York Times</a> television critic John Corry called the event "a combination of the sacred and profane and sometimes the downright silly".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEEatonHaas1999195-149">[149]</a> Paul Heyer comments that it was "presented as a kind of deep sea striptease" and that Savalas "seemed haggard, missed several cues and at one point almost tripped over a chair". Controversy persisted after the broadcast when claims were made that the safe had been opened beforehand and that the show had been a fraud.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHeyer19955-150">[150]</a> Marex-Titanic Inc. was formed in 1992 to launch an expedition to the Titanic. Marex-Titanic's CEO was James Kollar. The company was a subsidiary of Marex International, an international marine salvage firm located in Memphis, Tennessee. In 1992 Marex made a bid to seize control of the artefacts and the wreck itself by suing Titanic Ventures, arguing that the latter had abandoned its claim by not returning to the wreck since the 1987 expedition. It claimed a superior right of salvage based on a "pill bottle" and hull fragment that were said to have been retrieved by Marex.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEEatonHaas1994313-151">[151]</a> Marex simultaneously sent a vessel, the Sea Mussel, to carry out its own salvage operation.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEAssociated_Press1992-152">[152]</a> However, the Marex artefacts were alleged to have been illegally retrieved by the 1991 Russian-American-Canadian expedition<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEEatonHaas1994313-151">[151]</a> and Marex was issued with a temporary injunction preventing it from carrying out its plans. In October 1992 the injunction was made permanent and the salvage claims of Titanic Ventures were upheld.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETaylor1992-153">[153]</a> The decision was later reversed by an appeals court but Marex's claims were not renewed.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEEatonHaas1994313-151">[151]</a> Even so, Titanic Ventures' control of the artefacts recovered in 1987 remained in question until 1993 when a French administrator in the Office of Maritime Affairs of the Ministry of Equipment, Transportation, and Tourism awarded the company title to the artefacts.<a href="#cite_note-titanic-sec-by-Sec-154">[154]</a> In May 1993, Titanic Ventures sold its interests in the salvage operations and artefacts to RMS Titanic Inc., a subsidiary of <a href="/wiki/Premier_Exhibitions" title="Premier Exhibitions">Premier Exhibitions</a> Inc. headed by George Tulloch and Arnie Geller.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEEatonHaas1994313-151">[151]</a> It had to go through a laborious legal process of having itself legally recognised as the sole and exclusive salvager of the wreck. Its claim was opposed for a while by the Liverpool and London Steamship Protection and Indemnity Association, the Titanic's former insurer, but was eventually settled. It was awarded ownership and salvaging rights by the <a href="/wiki/United_States_District_Court_for_the_Eastern_District_of_Virginia" title="United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia">United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia</a> on 7 June 1994 in a ruling that declared the company to be the "salvor in possession" of the wreck.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEScovazzi200365–66-155">[155]</a> Litigation has continued over the artefacts in recent years. In a motion filed on 12 February 2004, RMS Titanic Inc. requested that the United States district court enter an order awarding it "title to all the artefacts (including portions of the hull) which are the subject of this action pursuant to the Law of Finds" or, in the alternative, a salvage award in the amount of $225 million. RMS Titanic Inc. excluded from its motion any claim for an award of title to the objects recovered in 1987, but it did request that the district court declare that, based on the French administrative action, "the artifacts raised during the 1987 expedition are independently owned by RMST." Following a hearing, the district court entered an order dated 2 July 2004, in which it refused to grant <a href="/wiki/Comity" title="Comity">comity</a> or recognise the 1993 decision of the French administrator, and rejected RMS Titanic Inc.'s claim that it should be awarded title to the items recovered since 1993 under the Maritime Law of Finds.<a href="#cite_note-mlaus_org_774-156">[156]</a> RMS Titanic Inc. appealed to the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Court_of_Appeals_for_the_Fourth_Circuit" title="United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit">United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit</a>. In its decision of 31 January 2006 the court recognised "explicitly the appropriateness of applying maritime salvage law to historic wrecks such as that of Titanic" and denied the application of the Maritime Law of Finds. The court also ruled that the district court lacked jurisdiction over the "1987 artifacts", and therefore vacated that part of the court's 2 July 2004 order. In other words, according to this decision, RMS Titanic Inc. has ownership title to the objects awarded in the French decision (valued $16.5 million earlier) and continues to be <a href="/wiki/Salvor-in-possession" class="mw-redirect" title="Salvor-in-possession">salvor-in-possession</a> of the Titanic wreck. The Court of Appeals remanded the case to the District Court to determine the salvage award ($225 million requested by RMS Titanic Inc.).<a href="#cite_note-uscourts_gov_041933-157">[157]</a> On 24 March 2009, it was revealed that the fate of 5,900 artefacts retrieved from the wreck would rest with a U.S. District Judge's decision.<a href="#cite_note-The_Express-Times,_24_March_2009-158">[158]</a> The ruling was later issued in two decisions on 12 August 2010 and 15 August 2011. As announced in 2009, the judge ruled that RMS Titanic Inc. owned the artefacts and her decision dealt with the status of the wreck as well as establishing a monitoring system to check future activity upon the wreck site.<a href="#cite_note-USA_Today,_2009-03-24-159">[159]</a> On 12 August 2010, Judge <a href="/wiki/Rebecca_Beach_Smith" title="Rebecca Beach Smith">Rebecca Beach Smith</a> granted RMS Titanic, Inc. fair market value for the artefacts but deferred ruling on their ownership and the conditions for their preservation, possible disposition and exhibition until a further decision could be reached.<a href="#cite_note-The_Virginian-Pilot,_14_August_2010-160">[160]</a> On 15 August 2011, Judge Smith granted title to thousands of artefacts from the Titanic, that RMS Titanic Inc. did not already own under a French court decision concerning the first group of salvaged artefacts, to RMS Titanic Inc. subject to a detailed list of conditions concerning preservation and disposition of the items.<a href="#cite_note-The_Virginian-Pilot,_16_August_2011-161">[161]</a> The artefacts can be sold only to a company that would abide by the lengthy list of conditions and restrictions.<a href="#cite_note-The_Virginian-Pilot,_16_August_2011-161">[161]</a> RMS Titanic Inc. can profit from the artefacts through exhibiting them.<a href="#cite_note-The_Virginian-Pilot,_16_August_2011-161">[161]</a> RMS Titanic Inc. has also attempted to secure exclusive physical access to the wreck site. In 1996, it obtained a court order finding that it had "the exclusive right to take any and all types of photographic images of the Titanic wreck and wreck site." It obtained another order in 1998 against Deep Ocean Expeditions and Chris Haver, a <a href="/wiki/British_Virgin_Islands" title="British Virgin Islands">British Virgin Islands</a> corporation that aimed to run tourist trips to the Titanic at a cost of $32,000 per person<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEScovazzi200367-162">[162]</a> (it now[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Dates_and_numbers#Chronological_items" title="Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Dates and numbers">when?</a>] charges $60,000<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTESpignesi2012260-163">[163]</a>). This was overturned in March 1999 by the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, which ruled that the law of salvage did not extend to obtaining exclusive rights to view, visit and photograph a wreck. The court pointed out that the Titanic is "located in a public place" in international waters, rather than in a private or controllable location to which access could be restricted by the owner. Granting such a right would also create a <a href="/wiki/Perverse_incentive" title="Perverse incentive">perverse incentive</a>; since the aim of salvage is to carry out a salvage operation, leaving property in place so that it could be photographed would run counter to this objective.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEScovazzi200368-164">[164]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Conservation_issues">Conservation issues</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Wreck_of_the_Titanic&action=edit&section=17" title="Edit section: Conservation issues">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Coal_from_the_Titanic.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d6/Coal_from_the_Titanic.jpg/220px-Coal_from_the_Titanic.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="219" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d6/Coal_from_the_Titanic.jpg/330px-Coal_from_the_Titanic.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d6/Coal_from_the_Titanic.jpg/440px-Coal_from_the_Titanic.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2333" data-file-height="2324" /></a><figcaption>Pieces of coal retrieved from the Titanic and controversially sold by RMS Titanic Inc.</figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Return_to_Titanic_Live.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/43/Return_to_Titanic_Live.jpg/220px-Return_to_Titanic_Live.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/43/Return_to_Titanic_Live.jpg/330px-Return_to_Titanic_Live.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/43/Return_to_Titanic_Live.jpg 2x" data-file-width="365" data-file-height="273" /></a><figcaption>Telly Savalas presenting the much-criticized Return to Titanic Live show on 28 October 1987</figcaption></figure> RMS Titanic Inc. has attracted considerable controversy for its approach to the Titanic. Two rival camps have formed following the wreck's discovery: the "conservationists", championed by RMS Titanic Inc.'s George Tulloch (who died in 2004), and the "protectionists", whose most prominent advocate is Robert Ballard. The first camp has argued that artefacts from around the wreck should be recovered and conserved, while the latter camp argues that the entire wreck site should have been left undisturbed as a mass grave. Both camps agree that the wreck itself should not be salvaged – though RMS Titanic Inc. did not stick to its proclaimed "hands-off" policy when it managed to demolish the Titanic's crow's nest in the course of retrieving the bell.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEButler1998216-47">[47]</a> Its predecessor Titanic Ventures agreed with IFREMER that it would not sell any of the artefacts but would put them on public display, for which it could charge an entry fee.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTERiding1992-165">[165]</a> Tulloch's approach has undoubtedly resulted in outcomes that would not have been possible otherwise. In 1991, he presented <a href="/wiki/Edith_Haisman" title="Edith Haisman">Edith Brown Haisman</a>, a 96-year-old survivor of the disaster, with her father's pocket watch, which had been retrieved from the sea bed. She had last seen it on 15 April 1912, when he waved goodbye to his wife and daughter as they left aboard lifeboat 14. They never saw him again, and he presumably went down with the ship.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEButler1998218-166">[166]</a> The watch was loaned to Haisman "for life"; when she died five years later, it was reclaimed by RMS Titanic Inc.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJorgensen-Earp200662-167">[167]</a> On another occasion, a steamer trunk spotted in the debris field was found to contain three musical instruments, a deck of playing cards, a diary belonging to one Howard Irwin, and a bundle of letters from his girlfriend Pearl Shuttle.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPellegrino2012207-168">[168]</a> It was first thought that Irwin, a musician and professional gambler, had boarded the ship under a false identity. There was no record of him being among the passengers, even though a ticket had been purchased for him. It turned out that he had stayed ashore but his trunk had been brought aboard the ship by his friend Henry Sutehall, who was among the victims of the disaster.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPellegrino2012209-169">[169]</a> The fragile contents of the trunk were preserved by the interior's starvation of oxygen, which prevented bacteria from consuming the paper. Very few other shipwrecks have yielded readable paper.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPellegrino2012205-170">[170]</a> On the other hand, the heavily commercialised approach of RMS Titanic Inc. has caused repeated controversy, and many have argued that salvaging the Titanic is an inherently disrespectful act. The wreck site has been called a "tomb and a reliquary", a "gravestone for the 1,500 people who died" and "hallowed ground".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJorgensen-Earp200645-171">[171]</a> Titanic historians John Eaton and Charles Haas argue that the salvagers are little more than "plunderers and armchair salvage experts" and others have characterised them as "grave robbers".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJorgensen-Earp200646-172">[172]</a> The Return to Titanic... Live! television show in 1987 was widely condemned as a "circus",<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJorgensen-Earp200648-173">[173]</a> though the 1987 expedition's scientific and financial leaders had no control over the show.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEEatonHaas1994310-42">[42]</a> In a particularly controversial episode, RMS Titanic Inc. sold some 80,000 lumps of coal retrieved from the debris field in order to fund the rumoured $17 million cost of lifting the "Big Piece" of the ship's hull.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEButler1998216-47">[47]</a> It attempted to get around the no-sale agreement with IFREMER by charging the new owners a $25 "fee" to act as "conservators", in order to claim that the coal lumps had not actually been sold.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJorgensen-Earp200648-173">[173]</a> This attracted strong criticism from all sides.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEButler1998216-47">[47]</a> Nonetheless, in 1999 Tulloch was ousted by the company's shareholders and was replaced by Arnie Geller, who promised a more aggressive approach to making a profit. The company declared that it had an "absolute right" to sell recovered gold, coins and currency. It was prevented from doing this by a court order in the United States and IFREMER withdrew its co-operation and its submersibles, threatening a lawsuit.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJorgensen-Earp200648-173">[173]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="UK_and_US_protection_agreement">UK and US protection agreement</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Wreck_of_the_Titanic&action=edit&section=18" title="Edit section: UK and US protection agreement">edit</a>]</div> In January 2020, the United Kingdom and United States governments announced that they had agreed to protect the wreckage of the Titanic.
