Mearly
20
YEARS
AFTER
MAKING
THE
world's
most
famous
underwater
discovery,Robert
D.Ballard
retruns
to
Titanic
to
record
the
most
dramatic
images
of
the
wreek
yet
seen-and
to
expose
evidence
of
new
dangers
that
impericl
the
legndary
ship.
As
Ballard
prepares
for
the
expedition,he
takes
us
back
to
the
clear,starry
night
of
April
14,1912,when
tons
of
icy
water
inundated
the
huge
vessel
and
dragged
it
and
1,523
souls
to
a
deep-sea
grave.He
explores
the
natrual
events
and
human
mis-judgments
that
eld
to
catastrophe,the
drama
that
contributes
to
the
mythology,and
the
people
who
make
Titanic's
story
live
on,from
confident
Captain
E.J.Smith,who
perished
with
the
ship
eh
ardently
proclaimed
safe,to
a
retired
London
justice
of
the
peace
who
recalled
playing
with
her
teddy
bear
on
Titanic's
sunny
decks-then
pulling
away
in
a
lifeboat,leaving
her
father
on
the
dying
vessel.
Ballard
chronicles
early
attempts
to
find
Titanic,including
a
1953
mission
using
echolocation,a
precuror
to
the
sonar
imaging
of
today.Then,as
he
and
his
team
return
to
the
site
in
May
2004,Ballard
briefs
us
on
the
"million-dollar
video
game"of
Titanic's
prow…of
artifacts
that
con-jure
scenes
of
human
pathos…of
