RMS Titanic was the second of a trio of Olympic-class luxury liners that carried much of the transatlantic traffic.
which had to handle much of the transatlantic traffic. The ship was owned by the shipping company White Star Line and was built in Belfast. On the night of 14 to 15 April 1912, Titanic collided with an iceberg on her maiden voyage shortly before midnight; part of the starboard side was punctured in several places, and within three hours the ship sank. 1] Although this is not the largest shipwreck in history in terms of the number of victims, it is the best known, especially as the ship was known to be unsinkable.
In 1985, the wreck was recovered under the direction of Robert Ballard, revealing much information about the ship and its fatal voyage. Three large ship parts and a quantity of smaller remains lie at a depth of 3800 metres at the bottom of the ocean.
An investigation was published on 21 August 2019. The researchers discovered that large parts of the ship had disappeared due to a metal-eating bacteria. Connoisseurs believe that in twenty to thirty years there will be nothing left of the shipwreck.
