Discovery aboard Titanic: They found an “interesting” necklace more than 100 years old in the depths of the shipwreck.

A necklace that is over 100 years old Discovered in the wreckage of the Titanic, deep-sea mapping company Magellan examined images obtained from the first full digital scan of the wreck taken last summer.

As seen in videos shared on Network light An island in Guernsey in the English Channel west of the Normandy coast of France-, by the company, The prized gold piece contains the tooth of a megalodon, a 17-meter prehistoric shark that ate orcas.

The company’s founder and CEO, Richard Parkinson, called the discovery “Amazing, beautiful and impressive”According to BBC.

He clarified that they are prohibited from touching and/or retrieving the necklace and other items found due to an agreement between the United Kingdom and the United States. It prevents third parties who are not relatives of the victims of the 1912 crash from removing artifacts from the ship.

Parkinson also expressed his desire to find the owner of the device. To do this, a thorough analysis of the face and clothes of the 2,200 passengers who passed through the ship will be done with the help of artificial intelligence and their relatives will be contacted, the British outlet points out.

The work done by Magellan This allowed us to see images of the shipwreck with unprecedented detail and clarity.

Using two remotely operated submarines, the team of researchers spent six weeks in the North Atlantic, where they mapped the entire ship and a 3-mile debris field surrounding it. The liner passengers’ belongings like shoes, watches etc. were scattered there.

The search results, including 715,000 images, They are ten times larger than any known submarine 3D model. “It’s a completely one-to-one digital copy, a ‘twin’ of the Titanic in every detail,” said Anthony Geffen, director of documentary company Atlantic Productions.

Titanic made her maiden voyage from Southampton, England to New York City. On April 15, 1912, it struck an iceberg in the North Atlantic off Newfoundland. The luxury liner sank within hours, an accident that claimed the lives of around 1,500 people.

Decay, discovered in 1985. It is situated at an altitude of about 3800 meters Under the seaAbout 700 kilometers off the coast of Canada.

Geffen said preview images of the Titanic often suffered from low light levels, allowing viewers to see only one part of the wreck at a time. The new 3D model captures both the bow and stern sections, which were separated as they sank. Sharp details.

A documentary on the project is expected to be released next year. But beyond that, the director of Atlantic Productions The new technology hopes to help researchers unravel the details of how the Titanic met its fate and allow people to interact with history in a new way..

“Many details of the Titanic come from guesswork, as there is no model to reconstruct or calculate the exact distance,” he concluded.
