You’ve never seen the Titanic like this before. We’re not talking about the movie starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet.

But we are talking about video. It was released by OceanGate Expeditions, and it features the highest resolution of the wreck of the Titanic — ever. The tragic doom of the luxury liner occurred 110 years ago, and the video shows the ship in vivid color in an astounding 8k resolution.

The ship’s bow, portside anchor, anchor chain and hull are all revealed in the clip.

“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,” says Rory Golden, an OceanGate Titanic expert and veteran Titanic diver, in a statement.

“… 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. Notably, it was one of the single-ended boilers that was first spotted when the wreck of the Titanic was identified back in 1985.”

First 8K Video of the RMS Titanic

The Titanic went down on its maiden voyage in April 1912. It was discovered in 1985, resting in the North Atlantic, 400 miles off Newfoundland.

Since that discovery, it’s become clear that the ship is decaying.

“We’ll have some better data next year,” OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush told GeekWire’s Alan Boyle. “But it definitely is in worse condition this year than it was last. It’s going through its natural consumption by the ocean.”
