Stern Spiraling To Ocean Floor

The team found the bow and stern of the ship about 2 000 feet 600 meters apart.
Stern spiraling to ocean floor. The double hulled bottom of the titanic held together and held the stern to the rest of the ship. For instance the evidence that the stern rotated is based on the marks on the ocean floor to its west and the fact that virtually all the debris is found to the east. The speed at which the stern hit the ocean floor caused even more damage. The stern spiraling flung debris in a 5 x 3 area around the wreckage site and suffered heavy damage as it slammed into the bottom of the sea.
Effort to raise large part of titanic s hull falters when 11 ton section that had been raised and was being towed breaks loose and sinks again to ocean floor about 380 miles off newfoundland. The conceptual ocean spirals could descend by up to 2 5 miles below the oceans surface to create self sustaining underwater communities that could be home to up to 5 000 people each says shimizu. Perhaps these tended to pull titanic down as well. I don t know if it s possible that unruptured bulkheads could have kept the stern afloat.
The stern lacking a hydrodynamic leading edge like the bow tumbled and corkscrewed for more than two miles down to the ocean floor. Surrounding the wreck is a large debris field with pieces of the ship including a large amount of coal furniture dinnerware and personal items scattered over one square mile 2 6 km. The second one is 20 miles south of it and the closest one is 17 miles north of the site. As the stern section sank water pushed out the air inside tearing apart the hull and decks.
Also the heavy engines were in the stern section. Navy who funded the development of ballard s remotely controlled sea vehicle in exchange for those missions. This proved that the ship had split into two on the surface and proceeded to crash into the ocean floor at. When you look at the sonar.
This pulled down the stern and caused it to sink.
