PR	TITANIC'S FINAL MOMENTS: MISSING PIECES In August 2005, a History Channel expedition team made a shocking discovery more than two miles beneath the Atlantic Ocean: large missing pieces of Titanic's bottom, more than 1,500 feet from the rest of the ship, so well preserved that even the original red paint is still clearly visible. These pieces were little known and never examined for their role in the sinking, and they tell a new and potentially more terrifying story of Titanic's final moments, rewriting the script that had previously been taken as fact. Relive the disaster, the history, and the deep-sea search for new clues in high-definition in TITANIC'S FINAL MOMENTS: MISSING PIECES, premiering Sunday, February 26th at 9:00 p.m. on The History Channel....	21st February 2006
