OceanGate Expedition’s most recent 2022 trip to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean at 13,000-feet succeeded in capturing ultra crisp 8k footage of the RMS Titanic wreckage. We get an up-close look at the bow, portside anchor, hull number one, a giant anchor chain, the number one cargo hold, and solid bronze capstans.
Some of the unprecedented views include seeing one of the single-ended boilers that fell to the ocean’s floor when the Titanic snapped in two. The single-ended boiler was also the first piece of wreckage of the Titanic that was identified back in 1985. OceanGate is planning a 2023 Titanic Expedition, which should begin in May 2023 if all goes to plan. This Titanic LEGO set is probably the next best thing to actually trying to get a piece of the wreckage for your collection.

We are seeing new details in this footage. For example, I had never seen the name of the anchor maker, Noah Hingley & Sons Ltd., on the portside anchor. 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. 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,” said Rory Golden, OceanGate Expeditions Titanic expert and veteran Titanic diver.
