The transatlantic rests more than 3,000 meters deep at the bottom of the Atlantic since he collided with an iceberg. The new analysis was prepared by a digital scan of the ship’s remains by submarine robots.
A study of a digital scan A real size of the Titanic has revealed new details of the Last hours of the emblematic ship. A precise replica In 3D it shows how the boat broke in two violently after being beaten by an iceberg in 1912, which caused its sinkingin which 1500 passengers perished. The images provide a new perspective of the boiler roomconfirming the testimonies that indicated that the engineers worked until the last moment to maintain the lights of the ship on.
More than 700,000 images were taken from all possible angles with these, a “digital twin”, Which was revealed in 2023. Because the wreck is so large and lies on the seabed in complete darkness, when exploring it with submersible, only parts of the wreck could be seen.
The ship’s bow is at the bottom of the sea, almost as if the ship will continue its trip. But located about 600 meters from there, the stern is transformed is a large mountain of metal. The damage was caused because it crashed into the marine floor after the ship was split in two.

He scanning reveals new details, such as a window Round that was destroyed by the iceberg. This coincides with the stories of some survivors, who affirmed that the ice penetrated some cabins during the collision. Experts have been analyzing one of the MAIN FOURTHS OF BOILERAS Del Titanic, which is easy to scan because it was in the area where the ship broke into two.
Passengers had commented that lights From the ship they remained lit until the moment it sank. The Digital replica shows that some boilers were concavewhich suggests that they continued to operate when they fell into the water. In the afterdecka valve In an open position, indicating that steam still flowed into the electricity generation system.
The Team of Engineers who except lives in the Titanic
A group of engineers led by Joseph Bell who kept the lights on were those who kept the lights on the ship, they died in the disaster, but their heroic actions saved many lives. They kept the lights and the electric current running until the end, which allowed the crew to display the lifeboats with some light and not in complete darkness. They avoided chaos during as long as possible and all that effort is somehow represented by that steam valve that is in the stern.
