Roskosmos has presented a satellite image of the surface of the Atlantic Ocean in the area of the Titanic wreck in 1912 and death bathyscaphe «Titan» a week ago.
The state corporation reported that the photo was taken by the Canopus-V spacecraft on June 24.
«Apparently, the crew died instantly due to some — some breakdowns, — noted in Roskosmos, — and the subsequent «collapse» of the body of the apparatus.
The corporation noted that for each kilometer of depth, the pressure increases by about 100 atmospheres. They also recalled that during previous expeditions, the Titan safely delivered about 80 people to the sunken Titanic, but the last flight was fatal for five people.
