Plot summary
A documentary assembled from footage shot over 1985, 1986 and 1987. Historical photographs and film show the liner being built and launched, and cameras follow the search at sea. Robert Ballard develops the technology for the hunt, and the U.S. Navy sponsors the expedition. On September 1, 1985, after 56 days of searching, Argo's camera shows wreckage and then one of the Titanic's boilers. Ballard goes back the following year with the undersea robot Jason Jr., piloted by Martin Bowen and mounted in a garage at the front of the submersible Alvin, to look inside the wreck and take up the human story and the theories about the sinking.
