The new theory that refutes the collision with an iceberg

Since already 38 years From the famous ship Titanicsank during its maiden voyage depths of the Atlantic Ocean. But the reasons for its collapse to this day, Not quite clear.

The most realistic and best-known theory is the one described in James Cameron movie: that collided with Ice mountain on his part, causing it to split in two. However, recent investigations can prove that the incident was not quite like this.

The theory that would show that the Titanic did not hit an iceberg

On April 14, 1912, the Titanic struck an ice structure and sank. But now, A.J investigation challenges the original theory. It is a corporate-led project Magellan Ltdspecializing in deep sea mapping, and Atlantic productionwho will make a documentary about the investigation.

The main goal is to make 3D reconstruction from the ship, through a Full inspection of the boat sunk to analyze its structure. Is it The largest project implemented at these depths Submarines, because they will completely capture the Titanic.

In this sense, one of the specialists involved in the investigation, Park Stevensonindicated the possibility of discovering new causes of the shipwreck: “I have an increasing amount of evidence of this The Titanic did not hit the icebergJust like you see in the movies.”

In addition, he commented on the possibility that the ship was indeed a ship I landed on the submerged ice shelfas suggested by some of the first theories published in the year of the event.

Another of the researchers Andrew Givenupbeat in a BBC presentation on the investigation: “We have all the screws from the Titanic. We can put it together againso we can do it for the first time See what happened And use real science to find out.”

Where are the remains of the Titanic?

ocean liner Titanic It is located at a depth of 3,800 meters at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, about 600 kilometers off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada.

Its remains have been the subject of intense exploration since they were first discovered in 1985 400 miles off the Canadian coast, but cameras weren’t able to capture the entire ship until a stunning reconstruction of the ship was revealed this year, by taking hundreds of thousands of photos of the remains.

Several remote-controlled submarines from a specialized ship have passed over 200 hours to inspect the remains of the Titanic on the sea floor and took more than 700,000 photos to create the scanner.
