The wreckage of the Titanic has been lying at the bottom of the Atlantic for more than 100 years. However, it was never possible to capture the entire ruins together on camera. Researchers have finally succeeded through 3D or three-dimensional scanning. For the first time, they were able to create a picture of the entire ruins.
Researchers set out in 2022 to create a picture of the entire wreckage of the Titanic through a three-dimensional scan. Two rovers named Romeo and Juliet spent six weeks in the summer of that year collecting data on the wreck on the ocean floor. A total of 16 terabytes of data was collected. The film made from there was released on Wednesday.
In 1912, Titanic was going from Southampton, England to New York City, USA. That was the ship's maiden voyage. Titanic sank on April 15 after colliding with an iceberg. About 1,500 passengers on board died. Titanic was the largest passenger ship in the world at that time.
The wreckage of the Titanic lies at the bottom of the North Atlantic, 13,123 feet below sea level. The place is about 650 km from the coast of Canada. The first ruins were discovered in 1965. Since then extensive research and research is being conducted around it. However, it was never possible to photograph the entire ruins with a camera.
Two companies named Magellan Limited and Atlantic Productions have done the work of creating pictures of the wreckage of the Titanic through three-dimensional scanning. Scientists involved in this work say that this could completely change the perception of the destruction of the Titanic.
