L'épave la plus célèbre du monde, celle du Titanic, repose depuis plus d'un siècle au fond des eaux glacées de l'océan Atlantique; cent ans après la tragédie, des experts peuvent, à l'aide d'outils technologiques, virtuellement drainer le Titanic.

A new scientific exploration is about to explore one of the most distant and dangerous archaeological sites on earth.

Deep on the ocean's floor, one landmark continues to fascinate above all the rest, It's tragic tale has been told many times. But there is another story... an ongoing technological drama... a high-tech adventure to discover and explore the mysteries of th RMS Titanic. This is that story... a quest marked by failure, success, classified operations, and moral uncertainty. 90 years after the loss of over 1500 souls, the story continues to this day.

"Titanic - Anatomy of a Disaster" is an original Discovery Channel production that looks into not only the history but the mystery surrounding the sinking of Britain's most luxurious passenger liner. This investigation, narrated by Martin Sheen, shows a research and recovery expedition that uses science to piece together the final hours of the Titanic: Discovery Channel has assembled a unique investigative team of oceanologists, marine engineers, archaeologists, microbiologists, metallurgists, engineers, writers, historians and movie makers to uncover the truth about one of history's greatest disasters.

Après sept expéditions sous-marines sur l'épave du célèbre paquebot, le réalisateur a suffisamment d'images pour reconstituer la véritable histoire de son naufrage. Il montre comment le navire a pu se briser en quatre et les débris se disperser dans les fonds marins de l'océan Atlantique.

300 miles off the coast of North America, in the dark waters of the Atlantic Ocean, a group of ships have come together at the site of the Titanic. Experts from the United States, Great Britain, Canada and France have convened with one goal, to conduct the first full-scale investigation of the Titanic Disaster.

Le Titanic est l'épave la plus célèbre du monde. Pourtant, lorsqu'en 1912, l'immense paquebot sombre, personne ne sait où se trouve exactement l'épave. Grâce aux avancées technologiques, une équipe composée d'océanographes, de scientifiques et d'explorateurs dispose enfin des outils et engins nécessaires pour explorer les fonds marins.

The Titanic lies in complete darkness, four kilometers beneath the ocean. So remote is this famous wreckage that only a small handful of explorers and scientists have dared to make the dangerous journey down to her decks. However, now we too can explore what is left of the mighty ship. Using special remote submersibles to glide through the living spaces of the Titanic, viewers witness the current condition of the ballrooms, hallways and living quarters of this famous vessel. In addition, this unique programme reveals what each room was like before the tragedy. On a guided tour of the ship, the stories of the inhabitants of each room are told. Around each corner, the grandeur that made this ship the pride of the White Star Line brings home the poignant story of those who spent their last moments aboard.
