The submersible heading to the wreckage was run by OceanGate Expeditions, which organizes deep-sea expeditions that cost about $250,000 per person.įive people were on board the sub when it went missing and the U.S. The scan was carried out last year by Magellan Ltd, a deep-sea mapping company, in partnership with Atlantic Productions. In May, the first full-sized digital scan of the wreckage was released, showing the entirety of the wrecked ship in 3D.

Several expeditions have captured images of the ship before.

The two broken parts of the ship – the bow and the stern - are more than 2,600 feet apart and are surrounded by debris. The Titanic is sitting on the ocean floor, about 12,500 feet below sea level. A Google Map by NOAA shows where in the Atlantic Ocean the Titanic wreckage is located, hundreds of miles from Newfoundland, Canada. The wreckage was first located in 1985 by marine explorer Robert Ballard, who returned about 20 years later to study the deterioration of the boat. Most of the Titanic wreckage remains about 350 miles off the coast of Newfoundland, according to NOAA.
