New unpublished pictures from the titanic were released on Wednesday 15th by the United States Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (Whoi Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, in English), an organization dedicated to the study, research and education of the ocean. The video with the content has more than an hour and was released at a time when the start of the film is 25 years old. Although the images have now been released they are not new, they were taken in 1986, a year after the Whoi team and the National Institute of Oceanography of France discovered the ship had sunk almost 4 kilometers below the surface. The released images are among the first postsinking images of the transatlantic ocean. The contents were recorded in July 1986 by a team of 11 divers. “More than a century after the Titanic sank, the human stories embodied in the great ship still resonate,” said James Cameron, who inspired the film’s story of the Titanic shipwreck, in a statement. “By releasing this footage, Whoi is helping to tell an important part of a story that will transcend generations and orbit the world.” The Titanic sank on April 14, 1912 during her maiden voyage from Southampton, England, to New York, USA. in the Atlantic and killed more than 1,500 people.
