Archaeologists have found what they believe to be the world’s oldest intact shipwreck at the bottom of the Black Sea where it appears to have laid undisturbed for more than 2,400 years.
The 75 foot vessel, thought to be ancient Greek, was discovered with its mast, rudders and rowing benches all present and correct just over a mile below the surface. A lack of oxygen at that depth preserved it.
Also on the water, a replica of the Titanic is going to set sail in 2022. The ship will carry 2,400 passengers and 900 crew members. The Titanic II‘s first voyage will take it from Dubai to Southampton, England. The ship will then trace the original Titanic’s route from England to New York. The Titanic II cost $500 million to build
