I've always been fascinated with all stuff Titanic. I think in the last week I've watched more Titanic specials then most. There was a Titanic category on Jeopardy the other day and I got all the questions with ease.
One special stood out to me, Titanic at 100: Mystery Solved on the History channel, detailed a recent expedition (2010) to map the entire wreck site and study it. They used some very advanced robots to do so, including one that could take 3d video and high resolution pictures, and two others that mapped the site using sonar. More details here.
The outcome was some incredible images...
Because of this they were able to find parts of the wreck that were previously unaccounted for. New clues were also provided to how the ship broke apart and sank. Very interesting!
