This has to be one of the most significant wreck finds of our time. The photos coming from the news article today give me straight up goosebumps. Much like the Titanic, I found the new photos and video haunting to look at but yet can't turn away. The fact it has remained in such pristine condition in the Weddell Sea is just amazing.
What a great piece of news to wake up to.

I didn't actually realize Titanic was only found in '85. It's just something I never thought about
