The most complete (to date) overview of all the important expeditions to the wreck of Titanic from 1985 to 2010. In The Titanic Expeditions, all of the deep-water expeditions to the wreck are presented together for the first time, enabling the reader to journey alongside the scientists, cinematographers and other specialists who have been visiting the wreck between 1985 and 2010. Their main findings and the sophisticated technical equipment they used are described and analysed thoroughly, and there is a plethora of photographs and rare material from official archives and private collections, much of which has never been published. The consultants and scientific editors engaged in this project are the leading figures and top authorities in their fields, making this beautiful book an international and interdisciplinary project of great magnitude. Includes Robert Ballard (1985, 1986, 2004); James Cameron (1995, 2001); French institute IFREMER with RMS Titanic, Inc.; expeditions with the P.P. Shirshov Institute of Oceanology (Moscow); and the latest and most science-intensive sonar mapping expedition of 2010.
