    Piece in the debris field near the LP cylinder

    Hi, I was trying to map the debris field east of the Stern section, starting from the sonar image, but I run into this piece, which is hard to tell what it is since it's not named in any of the maps I have found. I'm referring to the one marked in red. Basing on the shadow it casts, it...

    Forward Tower Debris photos & analysis, Third Funnel fun

    Hi y'all! I wanted to make a thread for the Forward Tower section since there doesn't seem to be one for both and for photos of the sections. So I made one.

    How did the Two Tower Debris break from the Stern? Or did they separate at the surface?

    Hi! A recent thing that has been going through my mind is: How did the Forward and Aft Tower Debris break away from the Stern? Or better yet, did they break away during the initial break up at the Surface? And their journey to the Bottom? A quick Rundown of what the "Hull Towers" are: There are...

    Proper Debris field Mapping and where to find it?

    Hello, I have recently been trying to look for proper mapping of the Titanic's Debris field (other than the Sonar) Here's two that I'm interested in: 1. The map from Titanic: The Final Word with James Cameron. While Parks Stephenson talks, this map, with labeling, shows up. However, it is...

    Guns found in the Debris Field

    Considering that there were guns aboard Titanic, have any been found, or even recovered from, the debris field around the wreck? I ask this because Lightoller mentioned in his memoirs that when he was swimming away from the sinking ship, the gun in his pocket slowed him down so he got rid of...

    Did Ballard look for a debris field because he thought the ship broke in half?

    I remember Ballard saying that he was looking for a debris field. One definitely would've been created if the ship broke in half. Why was he willing to believe the survivors who testified that the ship broke in half when so many people thought she sank intact at the time? Why was he able to...

    The breakup of the hull

    If there is already a thread about the mechanism and sequence of the breakup of the hull, I haven't found it yet, so here goes ... For many years I have been interested in just what went on when the Titanic's hull broke in two, and I have read various theories on the matter, although have not...

    Claim of new debris field

    It is claimed that a new debris field has been found, with important consequences for the story of the breakup of Titanic's hull. I was originally informed of this by Brian Ticehurst, but it appears on a number of newspaper sites...

    Any known photos of floating Titanic debris

    Save for the many photos of lifeboats approaching Carpathia, the photo of the overturned collapsible A, the photo of the abandoned lifeboat that contained 3 corpses, and the photo of the victim wearing a lifejacket being pulled onto a longboat, I have yet to see any pictures of floating Titanic...

    Floor Debris

    Will Cameron or any other expedition ever look at the floor debris for clues. There are probably millions of clues in that debris. In the first class dinning saloon there is a thing that looks like a piano. And possibly table and chair remanents, along with glass light bowls and table lamps (if...

    Childs wicker chair from Titanic debris

    I am seeking information about wicker furniture, specifically wicker children's chairs from the Titanic debris collected after sinking. A family is in possession of a chair and has been since the 1920's that supposedly came from the Titanic. Does any one know if there were indeed such items...

    Ballard's Debris Field Map

    As much as I "like" the debris and wreck site map from his latest anti-salvage rant, I see her has neglected to label the double bottom fragment from the 1st boiler room (about 150 metres north of the stern and 200 metres east, according to the Polaris Imaging map a decade ago). Also...
