Underwater robots have successfully mapped the first composite overview of the immense debris field left by the wreckage. This detailed mapping has helped illuminate the destruction at the end of the Titanic, the visual description of how it broke apart when sinking. Using advanced surveying techniques, researchers have improved information about the Titanic structure itself and what exactly happened during its sinking process. Every piece of wreckage provides a portion of what happened that night, summed up to increase our understanding of what led to this catastrophe.
