Titanic sank after crashing an iceberg on April 15, 1912. Of the 2,224 passengers and crew in it, 1,514 of them died. Some bodies of victims never found, still trapped in the most luxurious ship in his day.
The Titanic was discovered by the use of an unmanned submarine called Argo. Devices developed by the US Navy or the US Navy are exploring close to the ocean floor, sending images to the Knoor research vessel.
That day, a joint US and French research team mobilized Argo to investigate the debris on the ocean floor when the submarine passed one of the Titanic steam engines.
Researchers have been researching for years. According to Dr Ballard, Titanic is more than just a wreck. It has another dimension. "A disaster in the truest sense."
Three days later, the first sightings of Titanic were caught on camera. Written in photographs of rusted iron fence, broken ship body 2, and broken pole.
Remarkably, the Titanic is found in relatively good condition, though it has been submerged for years.
Although it has found its point of existence, at that time, the team had no intention to lift it or just to explore the renowned ship.
Agreements were made between US and French researchers, that anything taken from the wreck must be based on the laws of both countries.
Not only the rusty iron that is on the Titanic, but also the treasure. There are 10 billionaires who were then a passenger of the luxury ship. The storage rooms were filled with valuables, including diamonds that were then worth US $ 7 million in 1912.
Some of the world's richest people are on the list of passengers. One of them, John Jacob Astor and his wife - who gave birth to their son after the husband to share with Titanic. They stayed in a suite for US $ 4,000 for one way.
Isidor Straus, owner of Macy is also missing. Also with his wife who refuses to board the lifeboat without the man he loves.
One survivor of the tragedy Titanic, Eva Hart admitted grateful, the inventor team has no intention to disrupt the Titanic. "For me, it is my father's grave and 1,500 other victims," he said as quoted by the BBC.
In addition to the Titanic discovery, a number of historic events occurred on 1 September. In 1804, Karl Ludwig Harding discovered the 3 Juno asteroid.
Meanwhile, on September 1, 1923 Kanto earthquake occurred in Japan about 100,000 people were killed. On the same date Moammar Khadafi seized power in Libya through a coup - later, he will also experience a similar fate.
