27. Final moments of Titanic……………..

28. Titanic hit the starboard side with the iceberg.

29. The under compartments of the bow started to flood.

30. Due to the flooding, the bow commenced to go
down causing the stern to rise.

31. Initially the sinking was somewhat slower…….

32. Yet the later part of the sinking was sort of faster
and the golden funnels started to loosen one by one

33. Titanic continued to lose her funnels while the stern
was rising nearly 60 degrees from the ocean level.

34. She was out of electrical power and the stress concentration
had reached the maximum at the 2nd expansion joint of the ship
which lied in between the 3rd and 4th funnels…….

35. ….causing the Titanic to split in two from the 2nd expansion joint…

36. …right down to the keel of the vessel and the Stern fell back.

37. The Bow submerged completely by pulling down the
Stern vertically and then finally detached.

38. The Stern floated a couple of minutes perpendicular to the ocean level.

39. Then the stern flooded and floundered
completely leaving no trace of the Titanic.

40. The Bow traveled nearly 3km down the Atlantic ocean

53. A Gladstone-style handbag, named after Queen Victoria’s Prime Minister

55. A pocketwatch, stopped at 10:50

56. Dishes retrieved from the ocean floor stand in sand in a glass case as part of

show that dishes were found as shown after the crates they were packed in
disintegrated. At right is the bell from the crow's nest, on display in 2003 at
the Science Museum in London.

58. The Titanic's bow rests two-and-a-half miles under the North Atlantic.
