Visible for the first time through sonar imaging, the remains of the ship and its contents sprawl across a thousand acres of gently sloping seafloor. Combined with optical mosaics of individual artifacts (colored images), this map of the main wreck area will help experts explore, manage and protect the Titanic as a long-term archaeological site.
