A U.S. expedition confirmed Friday it had located the wreck of the Carpathia, the ship that rescued survivors from the Titanic and that was later torpedoed by a German submarine. The wreck, which was found May 27, rests 514 feet beneath the Atlantic Ocean in waters 120 miles south of Fastnet, Ireland.
Where is the Carpathia ship today?
In 2000, the wreck of the Carpathia was discovered sitting upright in 500 feet of water 190km west of Fastnet, Ireland. The wreck is now owned by Premier Exhibitions Inc., formerly RMS Titanic Inc., which plans to recover objects from the wreck.
Who found the Carpathia?
For the next 82 years Carpathia remained undisturbed in a watery grave, not unlike Titanic, until its remains were discovered by a team led by author Clive Cussler in 540 feet of water some 220 miles off the east coast of Ireland.
