The ship was completed in 1912 in Ireland and sailed across the Atlantic, from England to New York in the USA, with more than two thousand passengers on board.
But the ship’s exact location was a mystery until 1985 and the technology to reach her did not exist as the ship lay at the depth of 3,798 metres.
Then in 1985 a team led by Dr Robert Ballard used an unmanned diving vessel called Argo, which had a video camera that sent pictures back to the research ship.
Day after day they searched the seabed and finally found the Titanic.
The Nautile also had two robotic arms which were operated by a pilot inside the vessel. With their help the pilot was able to pick up various types of objects.
They were sad reminders of the many lost lives.
The Nautile’s technology also enabled scientists to answer the question that had remained a mystery since the sinking: what really happened to the Titanic?
