Unprecedented digital scans unveil Titanic wreck like never before.

TL;DR Summary
The first full-sized digital scan of the Titanic has been created using deep-sea mapping, providing a unique 3D view of the entire ship, enabling it to be seen as if the water has been drained away. The scan captures the wreck in its entirety, revealing a complete view of the Titanic, which lies in two parts, with the bow and the stern separated by about 800m. The scan shows both the scale of the ship, as well as some minute details, such as the serial number on one of the propellers. The hope is that this will shed new light on exactly what happened to the liner, which sank in 1912.
