The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) revealed a new video of the Titanic on Wednesday, more than a century after it sunk in the North Atlantic Ocean.
In 1986, the WHOI did 11 dives to a depth of about 12,500 feet to investigate the Titanic Wreckage.
Alvin, a three-person submersible, took people to the site for the first time, while Jason Jr. was utilized to explore the ship, according to Fox News.
James Cameron, director of the 1997 blockbuster film Titanic, said in a statement that he was "transfixed when Alvin and Jason Jr. ventured down to and inside the wreck."
WHOI is contributing to the telling of a narrative that transcends generations across the world by making the Titanic video public.
The Titanic, the world's biggest and most sophisticated ocean liner at that time, had watertight chambers that could be locked in an emergency, per Al Jazeera.
On its first journey from Southhampton, England, to New York City, New York, on April 15, 1912, the RMS Titanic collided with an iceberg that resulted in the tragedy.

An estimated 1,500 individuals lost their lives when the Titanic sank in the Atlantic Ocean, out of a total passenger count of over 2,200.
Oceanographer Robert Ballard observed the Titanic Wreckage 2.5 miles underneath the ocean. He described the ship's remains as "a giant wall of riveted steel" that towered over 100 feet above them.
During the exploration of the Titanic Wreckage, Ballard spotted shoes, including those of a woman and child, but no human remains, Sky News reported.
Wednesday's footage release coincided with the 25th-anniversary re-release of Titanic, which dramatized the Titanic sinking.
