"One of the most amazing clips shows one of the single-ended boilers that fell to the ocean's floor when the Titanic broke into two," says Golden. That puts ‘mission specialists’ - as the company refers to its crew, rather than mere tourists or passengers - in a very privileged cohort. “It is exciting that, after so many years, we may have discovered a new detail that wasn’t as obvious with previous generations of camera technologies.” [dives](https://www.euronews.com/travel/2022/04/13/accessible-tourism-scuba-diving-opens-for-disabled-travellers-in-thailand) on the Titan submersible - apparently named not after the famous boat but the watery moon of Saturn. "Notably, it was one of the single-ended boilers that was first spotted when the wreck of the Titanic was identified back in 1985." More than 100 years since the Titanic sank - and a quarter of a decade since Leo and Kate immortalised its ill-fated journey on film - the ship has a huge place in the popular imagination.

‘Even more remarkable are the phenomenal colors in this footage. With the help of scientists, the video will also support identification of species that are observed on and around the Titanic and archaeologists will be able to document elements of the wreck and debris field in greater detail. The unmatched footage is expected to assist in determining the rate of decay for the Titanic as future expeditions capture new footage that can be compared year-after-year. ‘Notably, it was one of the single-ended boilers that was first spotted when the wreck of the Titanic was identified back in 1985.’ In a statement, company president Stockton Rush said: ‘The amazing detail in the 8k footage will help our team of scientists and maritime archaeologists characterize the decay of the Titanic more precisely as we capture new footage in 2023 and beyond. New video footage filmed in the highest quality resolution shows the wreck of the Titanic in a completely different light.

A new breath-taking video went viral showing the Titanic's 200-pound anchor chain, enormous portside anchor, and single-ended boiler that was dropped to the ...

Mission specialists and researchers were transported to the enormous ship. The Titanic’s massive 15-tonne portside anchor, which was covered deep down can now be seen in the video. The team was able to zoom in on particular places with a resolution of about 80,000 pixels (8k).

Almost 40 years after the Titanic wreck was discovered, the first-ever 8K video footage has been released of the ship.

“Later in the video you see three round structures along the inside of the railing. Golden said it was this boiler that was first spotted when the Titanic wreck was discovered in 1985. The RMS Titanic, which had been called the “unsinkable ship,” hit an iceberg and sank on April 14, 1912, killing more than 1,500 passengers and crew members. The ship was travelling from Southampton, U.K. The video opens with footage of the ship’s iconic bow, covered in large, fragile stalactites of rust. “I’ve been studying the wreck for decades and have completed multiple dives, and I can’t recall seeing any other image showing this level of detail.”

As the heavily chronicled Titanic decays on the ocean floor, new technology can better capture that rate of decay thanks to 8K video capabilities.

Of course, the pristine 8K video also offers history buffs and Titanic aficionados a way to explore the shipwreck in grander detail. The video may also be useful for identifying species observed on and around the Titanic and for archaeologists to document elements of the wreck and debris in greater detail.

[RMS Titanic](https://www.popularmechanics.com/about/a28773634/deteriorating-titanic/) sank after colliding with an iceberg during the ship’s maiden voyage from England to New York City. The video later shows three round structures along the inside of the railing that are triple fairleads used to feed the docking ropes to the bollards on shore. “It is exciting that, after so many years, we may have discovered a new detail that wasn’t as obvious with previous generations of [camera technologies](https://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/gadgets/a40795580/mirrorless-vs-dslr-cameras-best-of-2022/).” [news release](https://oceangateexpeditions.com/press) that early in the video you can see the crane used for deploying the 15-ton anchor and a now-collapsed shackle that was originally attached to the main mast. The team captured the footage during its eight-day 2022 Titanic Expedition, comparing it to video from 2021. It wasn’t until 1985 that a French-American team found the wreck about 13,000 feet deep, southeast of the Newfoundland coastline. Already, new details from the shipwreck are coming to light, such as the clearly visible Noah Hingley & Sons Ltd. “Capturing this 8K footage will allow us to zoom in and still have 4K quality.”

“We are seeing new details in this footage,” Rory Golden, OceanGate Expeditions Titanic expert and veteran Titanic diver said. “For example, I had never seen ...
