Flipboard Culture Desk<p>Underwater robots took more than 700,000 images of the wreck of the Titanic, 2.36 miles (3.8km) below the surface of the Atlantic, to create a full-sized digital scan. Analysts have now studied this scan to determine a little more about what happened in the vessel's final hours. It's helped them understand the scene in detail, confirming contemporary accounts of how long engineers stayed in the boiler room to keep the ship's lights on, theorizing how a porthole window may have been broken, and getting more insights into exactly how the ship sank. "Titanic is the last surviving eyewitness to the disaster, and she still has stories to tell," Parks Stephenson, a Titanic analyst, said to <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://flipboard.com/@BBCNews" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>BBCNews</span></a></span>.
