Photo: Tamara Stubbs/Atlantic Productions/DiscoveryIt is said that we know more about the surface of the moon than about the depths of the ocean. That might not be the case for Susan Casey. Across an eventful career Ms. Casey—a former editor in chief of O, the Oprah Magazine—has researched and written books about big waves, great white sharks, dolphins and, in “The Underworld,” the oceanic depths. She dedicates her latest book to “those who love the ocean,” which she clearly does, writing about it with passion, knowledge and insights from personal experience.

☆ Fact Check-Revived Titanic-Olympic ‘switch’ conspiracy sunk by ships’ differences

In particular, design differences between the Titanic and Olympic, visible in photographs of the two ships, are consistent with the wreckage of Titanic being, in fact, Titanic, and making the switch theory implausible. Another of the ships, Olympic, was put into service the year before, on June 14, 1911, and retired in 1935, with many of its fixtures and fittings auctioned off before it was scrapped. Magellan and its collaborator Atlantic Productions released sample images and animations of the Titanic wreck site scans to media outlets in May 2023, which can be viewed (here), (here). Olympic’s hull number was 400, and Titanic’s was 401. “Meanwhile,” Layton said, “the Titanic’s correct hull number, 401, has been observed at the wreck site and on items recovered from the wreck.

☆ Mariana Trench and Challenger Deep: 6 facts about the oceanic chasm

‘Titanic’ director James Cameron is one of the few people who have visitedFew human expeditions have ventured to the Challenger Deep. Explorer and Texas investor Victor Vescovo said he saw a plastic bag and candy wrappers at the bottom of the Mariana Trench. A trip to the Challenger Deep can put a vessel under pressure that is “equivalent to 50 jumbo jets,” Feldman noted. In 2005, tiny single-celled organisms called foraminifera, a type of plankton, were discovered in the Challenger Deep,” according to NOAA. Given high interest in the Mariana Trench, however, researchers have made several efforts to give increasingly detailed pictures of its features.

Magellan, which helped develop visuals of the Titanic, said it's trying to help find the lost sub. "We are ready to support, and we are fully mobilised to help," Magellan said on its site. OceanGate runs the Titan submersible to take trips to the Titanic's wreck in the Atlantic Ocean. The equipment it is trying to bring in are those that helped produce the Titanic wreck images, the Magellan's David Thompson said to CNN. "We are ready to support, and we are fully mobilised to help," Magellan said on its site.

☆ Scan finds megalodon tooth necklace in Titanic wreck
  + stars: | 2023-05-31 | by ( Jack Guy | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +2 min
CNN —A necklace carrying the tooth of a prehistoric shark known as a megalodon has been discovered in the wreckage of the Titanic during a digital scan of the sunken ship. For more than 100 years, the necklace has sat at the bottom of the ocean following the sinking of the Titanic in 1912, according to Magellan, a deep water investigation company that carried out the scan. Images from the scan show a gold necklace with a tooth of a megalodon, scientifically known as Otodus megalodon, a prehistoric shark that lived more than 23 million years ago. The necklace was discovered by Magellan during a project to produce a full-size digital scan of the Titanic, which the company says is the largest underwater scanning project in history. The megalodon tooth necklace is pictured in the center of this image.

☆ Titanic: 'Largest underwater scanning project in history' gives never-before-seen view of wreck
  + stars: | 2023-05-17 | by ( Niamh Kennedy | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +3 min
CNN —The mysterious 1912 sinking of the luxury passenger liner, the Titanic, has long served as a source of fascination for many. Historians now believe that a new underwater scanning project may provide answers to some of the unanswered questions regarding the tragedy that killed more than 1,500 people. A team of scientists have used deep sea mapping to create “an exact ‘Digital Twin’ of the Titanic wreck for the first time,” according to a press release Wednesday from deep sea investigators Magellan and filmmakers Atlantic Productions. Data engineers can use the data to examine the true mechanics behind the tragedy, according to Titanic expert Parks Stephenson. According to Stephenson, this mapping will herald the “beginning of a new chapter,” for Titanic research and exploration.
☆ ‘Digital Twin’ of the Titanic Shows the Shipwreck in Stunning Detail

An ambitious digital imaging project has produced what researchers describe as a “digital twin” of the R.M.S. Titanic, showing the wreckage of the doomed ocean liner with a level of detail that has never been captured before. The project, undertaken by Magellan Ltd., a deepwater seabed mapping company, yielded more than 16 terabytes of data, 715,000 still images and a high-resolution video. The visuals were captured over the course of a six-week expedition in the summer of 2022, nearly 2.4 miles below the surface of the North Atlantic, Atlantic Productions, which is working on a documentary about the project, said in a news release.
