The Wreck Of The RMS Titanic Was Discovered In The North Atlantic Ocean, Approximately 370 Miles South-Southeast Of Newfoundland.

Led By Renowned American Oceanographer Dr. Robert Ballard, In Collaboration With French Scientist Jean-Louis Michel, The Joint U.S.-French Expedition Utilized Advanced Underwater Technology, Including The Submersible "Argo," To Locate The Shipwreck At A Depth Of About 12,500 Feet.

The Discovery Of The Titanic, Which Had Infamously Struck An Iceberg And Sank On April 15, 1912, Resulting In The Loss Of Over 1,500 Lives, Marked A Major Milestone In Maritime Archaeology.

This Event Not Only Solved A 73-Year-Old Mystery But Also Renewed Global Interest In The Titanic's Tragic Story, Leading To Extensive Preservation Efforts And Further Exploration Of The Wreck Site.
