1985: The secret story of the Titanic’s discovery

01-09-2026 03:05 PM


Ammon News - On this day in 1985, the wreckage of the Titanic was discovered some 73 years after the ocean liner sank. The news made headlines—but part of the story remained a secret for decades. The Titanic search was actually a cover for the U.S. Navy’s exploration of two sunken nuclear submarines: the USS Thresher and USS Scorpion. The navy also helped fund the Titanic expedition and the technology used to locate the ship.
